About
We are surrounded by impermanence. A series of erotic images: an erect penis* being manipulated, a man walking along a desolate beach, another man in repose on his apartment rooftop, and another man at poolside – all subjects seem to be in pursuit of understanding of their environment, and long-term satisfaction: an impossible state to achieve. "Sperm Whale" is an experimental meditation on impermanence, which was photographed on distressed 16mm celluloid, superficially revealing various men on the beach or in swimming pools, in various states of lounging in the lazy California sun. The footage was assembled using outtakes from a fringe beverage commercial. *Explicit Content, which is not intended for viewing by anyone under the age of 18.
