Bachelor of Fine Arts (Photography)
My practice incorporates elements of cinema, sound and photographic processes to broadly investigate the nature of experience, remembrance and nonproductive doing. Given the conception of dualism that has dominated our understanding of the world, my filmmaking relies on the use of extremely long takes and static camera perspectives in order to transform the familiar and reoccurring into vague vestiges of trace and drift. By meditating on what lies adrift, my work attempts to soften boundaries between subject and object, inside and outside.
