Bleached, painted and optically printed, “Fear of Blushing” combines alternating textures, irrepressible colour and corroded figures with menacing sound bites, effects and rhythm. Fleeting visions and voices emerge in unusual juxtapositions, suggesting a psycho-cinematic free-association. As individual frames are never projected for more than 1/8 of a second, this film discourages reflection and is best experienced in the immediate present. Only after the onslaught can you wonder what horrible thing was buried there.
