A film by Sebastian Buerkner

Blur Belt refers to the language of film to create a sophisticated work that signals a shift in Buerkner's practice. Made up of five distinct chapters, each beginning with an 'establishing shot' of a vertically striped, opaque glass door to suggest the same location, albeit at different times, that are accompanied by an evocative soundtrack that playfully refers to a history of filmmaking from Hitchcock to Lynch.

The filmic associations, combined with the basic approaches of creating animated form such as pattern, line and blur are used by the artist to either trigger or suggest particular emotional states, resulting in a work that acts almost like a psychological experiment on the viewer.
