Camera Trap

A wildlife film crew pursue local sightings of a rare wildcat in Central Asia using high-tech camera equipment.

Camera Trap is a comparative work using moving images a hundred years apart. The first half of the work looks at Muybridge as both animal and landscape photographer, compared with the second half which works with current camera traps set in the Borneo rainforests. A visual and aural comparison. The domesticated vs the wild. Staged vs remote capture. Caged sounds vs field recordings.
