 Location: SPACE Gallery, 528 Congress St., Portland, ME Description: Lumbermen began living in logging camps in the Maine woods in the early 1800s. They were the pioneers who created a successful self-contained working community in the woods, and on who’s backs the state’s economy and history were largely established. In The Blood, filmmaker Sumner McKane's ambitious multi-year project, takes the audience into this rugged environment - into the camps, onto the haul roads, landings and yards, rivers and lakes. Through rare archival film, digitally restored photography, raw and honest interviews, ambient sound design and live scoring, this innovative and entertaining multimedia presentation, featured on NPR's Echoes, brings this lost world vividly into the present. |
