Naheed Raza – Silk Video

Naheed Raza has recently shown a commissioned film about the strange power of the desert at Bloomberg Space and when looking at his website, I came across this beautiful but kind of strange (cruel?) video. I am sure it looks quite beautiful as a large projection – it’s a 16mm film – but that pinned down spider also feel kind of uneasy. All his silk has been used up albeit celebrated.
