Joan Jonas, Vertical Roll
A still of artist Joan Jonas’s video “Vertical Roll” from 1972. The bottom half of the black and white image shows a blurry, washed out female figure who seems to lay across the screen horizontally. Other than vague facial features and a shock of short dark hair, it is difficult to make out any details. The middle of the screen is demarcated by a black horizontal line, like those seen in old filmstrips between each negative.
