---|---|
Description/Abstract: | Noski Deville continues her collaboration as Director of Photography with artist Jananne Al-Ani, shooting across various HD formats using helicopter, boat and drone platforms. Black Powder Peninsular takes the form of an aerial journey across the British landscape. Al-Ani’s film features an area of north Kent rich in military and industrial history. Locations include the remains of the Curtis’s and Harvey explosives factory at Cliffe; the ghostly footprint of the Anglo Iranian Oil Company’s refinery on the Isle of Grain; and the ruins of Palmerston forts in the Medway estuary. Black Powder Peninsular is a single-channel digital video, which extends Al-Ani’s long-standing enquiry into the relationship between the technologies of photography and flight and their impact on modern warfare, from the earliest systematic use of aerial reconnaissance over the battlefields of northern Europe during World War One to the use of surveillance satellites and drones today. |
