"Doug Aitken is one of LA’s finest cultural figures. He does art—film, sculpture, paintings, multi-media, etc. This art’s been exhibited in hundreds of museums and galleries around the world. Over a chamomile tea Aitken pours me, I witness segments of incomplete but nearly finished Lightscape. It leaves my arm hair standing in some scenes, and in others I can’t help but shake my head at the stubborn endearment of the human species. While cast and populated with humans, Los Angeles and its surroundings are as critical a character in Lightscape, treated with a tough tenderness we don’t often intersect with when considering Southern California: its beauty, its brutality, its relentlessly coarse and candied hues all treated with a sort of subdued respect and neutrality, and without question, stunningly photographed. Where Lightscape takes the Aitken canon and exceeds itself into a new—and frankly masterful—arena is in its sound design".
