35 MILLIMETER MOVIE TRAILER FILM BOWL BY ARTIST BRIAN JEWETT 1991 Direct Current FIELD ARTILLERY GUNNERYThis unusual piece is a "film bowl," made of tightly wound original 35mm movie film. Artist Brian Jewett made a small number of these fascinating bowls in the 1990s, in which he transformed discarded film into functional art. The result is highly creative and visually compelling. You can see around the bowl the film sprockets and markings from the film. If you hold the bowl up to the light, you can see the hundreds of layers of film and the sprockets.
