Eyrie documents a visit to commemorative building built by the communist party in Bulgaria. The action taken by the artist at the centre of the work suggests an exploration as a space for play and speculation, displacing the insistent materiality of the site and the reverence of the ruin.

Inspired by a visit to Zabriskie Point – this film re-visits and contemporises Antonioni’s 1970 film of the same name. Aligning with Antonioni's stated intentions – to produce a work as "an idea in landscape" – the film undertakes a programme of visual and social research for the earlier film.

Constantinopoliad is an expanded documentary and installation that centers around the collective reading of a hand-made book. A response to the archive of the poet Constantine Cavafy, the story is inspired by the blank and torn out pages in “Constantinopoliad, an epic”, the journal the teenage Cavafy began when he and his family fled Alexandria; by lost and missing queer archives through time; and by the ghosts, both erotic and historical, that visit the older Cavafy in his poems.
