An interactive single screen video installation - Visitors move around the floorplan of a Taiwanese house. As you step into a room, the video projection switches to show that room. As you explore the house, you discover the history of a couple who lived there. They have returned to their deserted home to tidy up the secrets they hold from each other.
The work is both a closed loop and a story that unfolds progressively. The order in which you explore the rooms opens up different interpretations. A vivid cinematic work that follows the logic of dreams as you wander through the debris of a relationship breakdown.

AS TIME SWALLOWS TIME weaves fragmented narratives into a poetic dialogue between two entwined inquiries. The first engages with the curatorial focus of BIO28 (Ljubljana Design Biennale), which interrogates the historical symbolism linking women to flowers - figures of fragility, sensuality, and objectification - and the ways these associations have been reclaimed and subverted. The second unfolds as a speculative exploration of time and temporal perception as forces shaping human consciousness and evolution. Together, these threads compose a meditation on transformation, perception, and the cyclical nature of existence. Constructed through the juxtaposition of narrative fragments, the film layers scenes in a manner that invites viewers to navigate and reassemble its temporal and conceptual terrain.
The film presents a dialogue between the Ljubljana Biennale’s curatorial theme, “Do You Speak Flower?” which explores the historical contexts in which women have been symbolically linked to flowers—figures of fragility, sensuality, and objectification—and how those associations have been reclaimed and subverted, and this theme directly, and the authors speculative exploration of time, temporal perception and post humanity.

A summer in the life of a filmmaker weaving her way through six carnivals in England. Observing Caribbean cultural life celebrated-and contested- in public space. We witness multi stage soundsystems, Black Lives Matter floats, histories of violence and peace in the geography of local cities. This film is about how to (and how not to) make an image.
The film is inspired by Isaac Julien’s TERRITORIES, made with Sankofa Film and Video Collective in 1984. While Julien catalogues the antagonistic relationship between Black community and the police at Notting Hill Carnival, NEW TERRITORIES considers the role of spectatorship turned consumerism in laying the ground in which Black and Caribbean identities are defined.

APPLE GATHERERS explores the loneliness and dissatisfaction in a labour-intensive world of two main characters and the brief reprieve they have in moments of real human connection. The moment is fleeting, yet powerful - at the same time, it can be interpreted as the single strand that binds them to their drudgery. Set at the bottom of a hierarchical apple cider factory where every aspect of apple production is meticulously controlled, the Peeler and the Shoveller wrestle with management to hold onto their humanity.
