qasim ali naqvi

Trailer for Landscape Studies: New Mexico (2008-10), a sort of abstracted pilgrim's progress through the region's strange histories of exploration, conquest, revolts, rodeos, missile tests, film shoots, truck stops and participant ethnography. Organized by Pueblo Indian theories of the meanings of colors, clouds and directions. Shot and edited by Mariam Ghani, choreographed by Erin Ellen Kelly, conceived and performed by Kelly and Ghani, score by Qasim Naqvi, sound mix by Andrew Munsey.
