491, VA

by George Matthews, 2023

491, VA is a diary of time spent grieving and in fear in the state of Virginia. It consists of several tableaus of the various landscapes and textures found across Richmond, Virginia Beach and the Northern Neck, each lasting exactly four hundred and ninety-one frames, building to a stirring finale that reckons with the eldritch terror of natural phenomena and the uniqueness of Freddie Kreuger.

491, VA is scheduled to release in early 2024
