i was a video artist. these 3 videos are from my past. actual air / time decanted sets the music of Oneohtrix Point Never to a kaleidoscopic series of images. they are metallic and lit with reflective glares. i photographed my hand and superimposed a glowing orb in the center of my palm. my body is in the digital space. the figure under a black shawl is a silhouette of my mind.

ALLAH was shot from my window one hot sunny day. a shepherd was tending to the birth of a stillborn and healthy pair of sheep. his cold calculated actions were in contrast to the heat and mess of nature. that brings me to eternal summer, a portrait of the feeling of endlessness in the middle of the earth's orbit around the sun. i dedicate these videos to the memory of mermaids.
