Five minutes created from the manipulation of a 35mm photograph, taken during a train journey between Dordrecht and Rotterdam, without the shutter’s help. Photography gains the movement of cinema, absorbing the flow of light. It becomes molten and continuous. Forms lose their definition; they exist between figuration and abstraction. Five minutes that break down the boundaries between cinema, photography and painting. (Ana Cabral Martins)
