Denise Hawrysio (1985 / 2002)
Sound by John Wynne
· Lux Open, London, 2003

This was shot on Super-8 film in the Hawrysio's father’s house in Woodstock, Ontario, during a time when he was in declining health and was increasingly housebound. It simply records the process of looking out from every window in the house, embodying a place and time through movement and sound, the camera engaging poetically as a sort of witness.

The soundtrack, added in 2002, is taken from Panic and Depression, an electroacoustic composition for violin and tape composed by John Wynne in the early 1990s, with Aleks Kolkowski on violin.
