This current work continues to explore the interrelation between body, space and movements. Conceptualized as a split-screen projection. A naked female figure enters into the low-lit studio space and starts a playful improvisation triggered by her magnified reflection projected on the floor. The work explores the complexity of reality and space. The place of the body in a fragmented multi-layered world. The piece has been inspired by Jean Cocteau's 'Orphee' (1950).
Five soldiers prepare and enact a performance that alludes to the aggressively physical games of the British public school.

Mi Piace is a film of made with the documentation of one performance to camera, where during a spurious singing rehearsal, the singer's body is progressively bound to test the changes in the voice. The film leaves ambiguity as to the exact nature of the events, which are presented as a diverse collection of documentation, hence suggesting a history.
The singer is asked to perform repeatedly a popular aria (O Mio Babbino Caro), at each repetition (itself interrupted in mid flow at different points) the singer's body is bound, starting from the ankles, and proceeding upwards. The section isolated in the soundtrack Mi Piace, is part of the aria and means like' or in its original context 'I would like to'.
Rollin'on is a film about skateboarding, hard work and perseverance. The film tells the story of a group of young people who regularly meet at Finsbury Park skate-park. Its main narrative is given by an interview with legendary skateboarding champion Tony Hawk, in which he tells the story of his first rolling steps into the world of skateboarding and how much skateboarding contributed to changing his life from bullied shy boy and outsider to revered professional skateboarding champion and video game character. The film draws a parallel between the lives of the young skateboarders in Haringey and their hero and hopefully will prove very inspirational among viewers. The film touches on themes such as bulling at school, social barriers and prejudice, as well as investigating weather skateboarding could offer a viable alternative to gun, knives, street crime in general and boredom.
