Project Detail

Landing Lights

Synopsis

Passenger planes and tall buildings. A contemporary haunting. We are constantly reminded of the horrors of such real events in the recent past and are regularly forced to revisit them.

Landing Lights is more of a dream than a nightmare and as such could be read as something of an antidote to the prevailing politics of fear.
