Particularly evident was the artist's fascination with the late-nineteenth-century chronophotographs of Etienne-Jules Marey, especially his studies of the movement of smoke and fluids, echoed here in Veilhan's large, breathtaking sculpture Air Hockey Table, 2008, on which black cylinders slide slowly and furtively. As they had been fabricated roughly, with film canisters, reels, and strips incorporated into their wood, wire, and metal frameworks, they had an edgy, provisional quality recalling Etienne-Jules Marey's repeating "rifle" camera used to create chronophotographs dissecting the movement of birds in flight in 1882. Ethridge's "moons" are then digitally repeated, twice or more, within the frame of a single photograph--rather like the sequential chronophotographs of Muybridge or Marey--in order to suggest the trajectory of the moon's movement across the night sky. |
