Paul Malone : 00 Scale : Terminus

'Terminus'. Still from movie. 'Erased Walls' event Berlin 2010

Terminus is about the end of the line and a new adventure...

This movie introduces a sequence of encounters between walls, destruction and the 00 scale model railway environment.
It starts and ends with a scene of peaceful devastation, populated by the random entrance and exit of its avian inhabitants. In the central developmental section, the movie migrates to the interior of a vacant gallery space. Projected onto the walls are a series of movie clips of walls and tunnels dissolving into daylight. This sequence is re-viewed from the aspect of a camera mounted on a model train, as it twists and turns across the floor. This 'dream' sequence is augmented by the appearance of a pair of giant feet that proceed to engage in pursuit.
