Lucy Raven's Demolition of a Wall (Album 1) is the second film in her trilogy of "Westerns." In American cinema, the Western has traditionally celebrated the expansionist myth that the region is somehow primal or untouched. Raven, by contrast, engages with a West that–while still dramatic in its natural beauty–has been industrialized, militarized, and colonized. She filmed this work at an explosives range in New Mexico that is typically employed as a test site by the US Departments of Defense and Energy and private munitions companies. Notably, it is close to Los Alamos, a national laboratory known for its role in the development of the nuclear bomb. Using a variety of cameras and imaging techniques, Raven captures the trajectory of the pressure-blast shockwaves that move through the atmosphere in the wake of an explosion.

In Louisiana, the so-called bayous form a network of navigable water arms with marshy banks that stretches for thousands of kilometers . The waters flow very slowly, with a barely noticeable current towards the sea at low tide and upstream at high tide. This complex ecosystem is home to a great diversity of animal and plant species. Shot in the border region between the states of Texas and Louisiana, the film follows the course of the approximately 900-kilometre-long Sabine River. It documents the sometimes surprising behavior of numerous animals that live there, such as ants, raccoons, crayfish, water turtles, egrets, pelicans, fish and jellyfish.

It is at the top of the food chain - and when it shows its 90 razor-sharp teeth with a beaming “smile”, you understand why.
