SeeingSeeing

Through meticulous cut-up, collaging and stop motion, Nico Vassilakis makes words dance across the screen, moving our eyes in all different directions. This video poem is dynamic and colourful, and brings into question what happens when we 'see' a word - where do we distinguish between the image a word forms in our minds, and the image it forms on a page or screen?
