“SURVEILLANCE is a mini film-essay made up of CCTV footage. With Petit’s voiceover we explore the strange hold exerted by this format, its crumby video images oddly framing empty landscapes where the only indicator of time passing is the digital numbers that tick over in the corner of the screen. Despite the sinister presence of these cameras Petit compares their recordings to the dawn of cinema when it was enough to simply watch a single static shot and be overwhelmed by this new technology.” Rob Munday
