Crevices (2019) (5 minutes, 50 seconds) (silent)
Through metaphorical and meditative qualities, this abstract film shot completely in France, is a quiet reflection on moments where my mind wanders, gathers, worries, generates and settles. It is in between all of this where uncertainty, longing, connection, and creative curiosity occurs.

Beneath the Skin (2016) 6 min: 36 seconds (silent)
Beneath the Skin explores the ongoing tenderness I feel towards the loss of my mother. It gets to the heart of my grief by exploring how my deepest memories lay beneath my skin. They flow in waves, appear distorted and can take over my mind when I am least expecting it.
