Introduction to Crack Sealing

Jan 20, 2023
0h 7m
★ 0.0

Overview

Filmed in the parking lot of the Torrance Public Library shortly after its surface was repaired, Introduction to Crack Sealing traces the calligraphic gestures left by flexible rubberized asphalt. Devereaux’s camera follows the wavering lines, skipping from one to another, turning the utilitarian marks of maintenance into strokes of abstract drawing. Silent and pared down, the film reframes the parking lot as a field of accidental composition, where repair becomes inscription and the act of seeing becomes a study of gesture itself.

Introduction to Crack Sealing 2

Jan 20, 2023

Filmed in the same Torrance Public Library parking lot, Introduction to Crack Sealing 2 reworks the material of the first film into a sharper, more fractured arrangement. Where the original moved fluidly along the wavering asphalt lines, this version interrupts and jolts—images are thrown at the viewer in abrupt succession rather than unfolding in smooth sequence. At irregular moments the progression halts, pausing briefly to give the eye a fleeting chance to study a composition before the next cut arrives. Silent and stripped down, the film turns the repaired surface into a volatile field of inscription, where repair becomes staccato mark-making and perception itself is fractured into sudden bursts of line and form.
