About
By hand-stitching this series of film stills, Aubrey Longley-Cook transforms the narratives of the city through an embroidered lens. He draws on the rich histories of Hollywood filmmaking and Southern California craft practices to explore the region’s narrative fabric and cinematic landscape.
He references and honours the craftsmanship that goes into creating films while transmuting frames through stitched pixelation and the distortion of his handwork. The tales of a city are interconnected and echo through anything set in a similar cinematic space. These stills share a network of iconography and visual language that allow for a specificity of storytelling and allows for a contribution to a greater sense of place. Spliced together these moments offer a character study of Los Angeles.
