OPALIO, ROBERTO - Whispers Of The Last Light

special handmade ltd. ed. of 100; in nice-textured cardboard tri-fold sleeve, with silver ink drawing by Roberto Opalio; handnumbered. New short film by visual artist / musician Roberto Opalio, one half of My Cat Is An Alien. Filmed on March 21st, 2006, the video represents a visionary, introspective view of the empty spaces over the city, Torino. Through a unique, hand-manipulated shot made in real-time, Roberto Opalios poetic fragmentation and distortion of real objects recalls early film experiments by Man Ray, as well as a certain Warholian psychedelia in the use of filtered light as a main principle of creation / perception of ones own reality. The soundtrack, recorded the same day appositely, leads to a further estrangement with the use of Opalios looped wordless vocals and electronics merging into a heavy, ecstatic stream of sounds." - Opax.
