Autumn Enso

John Kannenberg’s Autumn Enso is a long-form video painting. Originally premiered at the 2006 Spark Festival in Minneapolis, this quietly evolving series of images combines still photography, video, traditional drawing and meticulously manipulated animation with a live performance of the original album’s sonic source material. Inspired by the circular enso paintings of zen buddhism, Autumn Enso’s delicate balance between representation and abstraction immerses the viewer in a celebration of the cyclical nature of the autumn season.
