“Belden & Kimball” lurks around a porch, seemingly the same elevated overlook Elam used to shoot from in several of her other works, e.g. “Janssen Porch/Garden ’79.” This piece distinguishes itself because, rather than looking beyond, the majority of this footage notes the lay out of the porch space itself, noting its d?cor and structure. The film only looks out to open and to conclude (perhaps as a calibration of locale).

Abstract:
"Belden & Kimball" lurks around a porch, seemingly the same elevated overlook Elam used to shoot from in several of her other works, e.g. "Janssen Porch/Garden '79." This piece distinguishes itself because, rather than looking beyond, the majority of this footage notes the lay out of the porch space itself, noting its d?cor and structure. The film only looks out to open and to conclude (perhaps as a calibration of locale).
