The Intestine
Maya is an unhappy young woman, fed up with her monotonous job, filthy apartment, and the responsibilities of caring for her drug-addicted mother. One night she comes across Philip, a man of wealth, and the next morning wakes up alone in his large suburban home. With Philip nowhere in sight, Maya attempts to gain possession of the house.
Point and Line to Plane
A young woman attempts to extract meaning from an intense loss as she encounters signs in her daily life and through the art of Hilma af Klint and Wassily Kandinsky. Point and Line to Plane portrays the phenomenon of magical thinking endured during an individual’s journey to process, heal and document a period of mourning.
The Soft Space
The corridors, stairways and platforms of a subway station are juxtaposed with the human body, each broken into parts and positioned in an existential consideration of the transient spaces we unconsciously traverse everyday.
