Filmed in Malå, a Sámi community in Sweden during nights over the summer months, Marker was funded by Arts Council England with the support of Film London Artists Moving Image Network.
Marker (2009)
A line
slung in a coil
rope
watch it unfold
a snare when set
lasso when caught
a sound
spirals a thought
circles of ghosts forces and flows
a loop inside my name
unbounded and incomplete
diverging inside the same
a line from nested repeat
animal eye not wild and not tame
a moment is stretched inside a name
stirrup bone ungula sole
horn for a toe
I, let her go
