Cast-On 2: Dresser Music
Cafe OTO TakuRoku
https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/shop/cast-on-dresser-music

with Alicia Gladston, Rachel Hell, Olivia Norris, Cecile Tulkens, Dawid Laskowksi, Kim Thue, Shaun Crook and Jackson Burton.

Cast-On looks at the photoshoot and background music; how they can intercept & harness the passage of time, these subjects themselves being built from layers of meta-performance.

Shot in an empty OTO, the film is set on the margins of a photoshoot, in a world created by Alicia Gladston with Ilana Blumberg’s 2021 knitwear collection i-Lana as its genesis. As sets and scenes come and go throughout the space, the piano interrupts and underwrites the opaque dialogue that constructs the magic of the photograph.
