Arcade
A kaleidoscopic experimentation in colour, in which familiar Brighton locations are distorted and interspersed with imagery from adverts and film clips.
Tony Sinden's kaleidoscopic experimentation in colour distorts familiar Brighton locations, interspersing them with adverts and film clips. The overall effect is to satirise the contemporary fascination with violent imagery.
Art film experimenting with a kaleidoscope use of colour. An 'Underground' style film which exalts and satirises the contemporary fascination with violence. Despite its Brighton locations, 'Arcade' is American in feeling - although not in an artificial way, rather the American movies and advertisements that Sinden exploits in his imagery have become quite international.
