Alchemy : End of a phase

Item consists of a video by Valerie LeBlanc. The tape is a personal recount of the director’s decision to give up one art form, that of glass blowing, to move on to something new. Shot in simple style that combines still images with a visual performance/ demonstration and a layered soundtrack. Its title, "Alchemy" references the term's use to describe the medieval science of chemistry that allows one to transform something special. It also is considered to be a lost art.
