I long for magic
Experimenting with moving image, the work explores themes of chance, fortune, and the surreal. Interpretations of four tarot readings have inspired the narratives of my works in film; however, embracing the open nature of the practice leaves much of the story ambiguous and purposefully open to interpretation by the audience. Theatre is another major influence on the work, especially the relationship between audience and performer.
As a practice, much of my work evolves from short writings that imagery can be created from – aiming not to illustrate but to coexist, and create layers of poetry.
What dances while we sleep,
A whisper of cool amongst the still
