Memories Live Around Us
Experimenal Short | Archival [01:27min]



In our fast lives, take a minute or two to pause.  Memories Live Around Us is a small project I've been working on after discovering some old archive tapes. By projecting onto a wall I observed on a walk, I try to express a quiet feeling of reverie–a tender recognition that my life exists as memories layered over time. Even in the subtle and mundane, I watch to remember.

Why I Want To Leave Sydney
Social Media Video [02:04min]



Returning home to a place where you feel you don’t fit in can be daunting. You find yourself always wanting for more. Why I Want To Leave Sydney explores themes of displacement and purpose, uncovering smaller hidden truths about meaning and identity. Purpose comes from the person. Not the place.
