March Spotlight: The hope of spring...

Hello VP Newsletter and Website readers,

I am so very pleased to announce that, despite the chill in the air, spring is indeed almost here! The spring equinox is just around the corner, which means that a very familiar season of slush is on our way… But don’t fret, slush is simply a sign of change. Though it can be difficult to process at first, I promise you, change is a very good thing.

For those of us who tend to hibernate during the winter, spring invites us to come out of our blanket cocoons. There may be no better time for metamorphosis than when the leaves are budding from the trees, and golden hour no longer feels like a distant memory.

For this spring-inspired spotlight I’ve curated three films that focus on the theme of transformation.

I hope you all have a very lovely March!

May the hope of spring transform you,

-  Jo Reimer, Dist Assist

Spring by Breanna George, 2013

In my video “Spring” I evoke the emotion of spring, where the bleakness of winter cracks open to the fragile but unstoppable bounty of springtime hope. I am playing with the flat surface of video and keeping the consciousness of the square and rectangle format. I am also subtly kaleidoscoping one's vision of the world as one's hope opens up. I have set a basic narrative structure of first comes love and then comes babies with the metaphor of the tree of life, the family tree.
