Mount is quite a romantic, mythical work.
Shot while on residency in Fort Warden, Washington, the video follows an ascent from the sea to the summit of an old signalling tower at dawn; as the artist (Helios) climbs upwards, the darkness clears. Through the physical and metaphorical effort, the otherworldly value of man-made creation is explored.
