Scott Barley
Scott Barley (born 11 November 1992) is a Welsh filmmaker, artist, drone musician, and writer.[1][2][3] His work often focuses on creating mood and sensory experiences rather than following traditional narrative structures. His films have been associated with the remodernist and slow cinema movements, and ecocriticism.[4][5] Recurrent themes in his work are the anthropocene, nature, darkness, absence, cosmology, phenomenology, mereology and mysticism.[6][7][8] His filmmaking methods have been compared to David Lynch, Stan Brakhage, Philippe Grandrieux, Béla Tarr, Alexander Sokurov, Maya Deren and Jean Epstein.[9][10][11][12] Since early 2015, Barley has almost exclusively shot his films on iPhone. He is most well-known for the 2017 experimental film, Sleep Has Her House. Danish film critic, and former director of the European Documentary Network, Tue Steen Müller has described him as the "Anselm Kiefer of cinema".[13][14][15] Influences and styleBarley has cited Béla Tarr, Robert Bresson, Michelangelo Antonioni, Pedro Costa, Phil Solomon, Jean-Claude Rousseau, and Nathaniel Dorsky among his favourite filmmakers.[16] Barley's imagery and focus on natural landscape has been likened to the romantic tradition of The Sublime within a modernist and digital context. Critics and academics have drawn parallels with Sleep Has Her House and the work of Caspar David Friedrich, J. M. W. Turner, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Wagner's Götterdämmerung and the ideas of Immanuel Kant, among others.[17][14][18] Barley's approach to filmmaking is similar to that of other solo and poetic avant-garde filmmakers, Stan Brakhage, Jonas Mekas, Nathaniel Dorsky and Peter Hutton, but the post-production process is unique to both mainstream and avant-garde filmmaking practices.[19][20]
