I make Expanded Cinema and documentary films mirroring mechanics of subjective experience.
I create film works that live between sensation and thought—where something felt might become something known. Expanded Cinema and poetic documentary allow me to invite viewers into experiences that mirror the layered, unstable nature of perception itself.
I’m fascinated by the fallibility of the senses, and by how we but also the sciences and philosophy attempt to grasp what it means to be conscious, to observe, to be. I ground my work in these fields, to explore what happens when such knowledge meets the poetic language of cinema.
Using 16mm film, high-speed recording, and multi-screen compositions, I work toward a cinema that doesn’t just show, but evokes. A cinema that touches the invisible forces shaping our inner and outer worlds—and gives space to their shifting presence.
