Under Water Sea Fantasy

Beginning production in 1983 and completed just prior to Goldstein’s suicide in 2003, Under Water Sea Fantasy reveals Goldstein’s acute understanding of the perception of spectacle and the power of image. Using production values influenced by Hollywood studio techniques, he exploits the spectacular effects of visual presence and the interplay of sound and image. Footage of natural phenomena such as underwater life, volcanic eruptions and celestial events is montaged into a flow of appearing and disappearing energies with no clear narrative structure.
