FOUR LETTER HEAVEN by Cecily Brown

Synopsis:
With 'Four Letter Heaven', acclaimed painter Cecily Brown extends the exploration of erotic impulse and the sexual power of paint that marked her early paintings into the realm of moving image.

Composed of individually hand-painted frames, the stop motion film jerkily follows a close-up sexual encounter between a man and a woman. As we watch the moving parts - of cock, pussy, hand and mouth - the blurs and stains of paint appear to lubricate the action blending the thousands of images into a single thought.
