Though his Samstag work provides only an indicator, film–making is integral to Shane Carn's objectives. To Carn, film remains conceptually a visual art, with the added benefit of its complexity and power to engage the viewer. He cites the Chilean film–maker Raul Ruiz as an example of a visual artist who, through film, creates a view of reality that is not constructed by narrative.
