Description
ASL Abstract Motion is an immersive video installation presented across two facing screens, creating the effect of an open book. The background: a single, uninterrupted freeway drive—symbolizing life’s continuous forward motion—shifting subtly between black & white and color.
Overlaid on this moving canvas are nine vivid sequences of abstract ASL gestures, presented in bold color and expressive form. Each gesture becomes its own visual rhythm—exploring ASL not as communication, but as visual poetry.
The experience is amplified by an original house music score, composed by Lenny Savage & Luke Civerella in direct response to the visual movement. The result is a dynamic dialogue between sound and sight, rhythm and identity.
