Timothy Thomasson Slows Down CGI at ELEKTRA Gallery

An installation version of Timothy Thomasson’s CGI film Slow Track (2021) opens at Montreal’s ELEKTRA Gallery. Putting the self-described “slow CGI” artist’s philosophy into (in)action, the film scans mundane, messy, and unremarkable scenes—to contrast the bombastic VFX and gleaming product shots the medium is often associated with. “Rather than a CG image that seduces us with excess, this one asks for patience,” writes Thomasson.
