Consisting of moving images taken from a “Castle Film”, commercial films intended primarily for home screening and certainly the most widely distributed films in the history of photochemical cinema. Trains is a work on the tension between the familiarity of reused images and their curious oddities. Film which recalls the artist’s commitment to the repetition and the materiality of the film.
