Copenhagen Cycles is Dyer’s collaged portrait of Copenhagen in which transformed but recognizable images, based on that city, swirl across the screen to dizzying effect. The body of work was initiated in 2006 when Dyer spent eight months videotaping and physically connecting to the city on bicycle. Working intuitively to exploit the seemingly never-ending expressive qualities of his process, Dyer selected sequential stills from the footage to structure and construct zoetrope-like sculptures. Originally a film that was shown in more than four dozen festivals, Dyer rebuilt the zoetrope-sculptures and re-shot them in high-definition in 2014 .
