The video pieces I create act as visual poetry. They often seem more like still images that contain motion. The stillness of the camera emphasizes the intrinsic motion of the subject matter: the movement of a belly rising and falling with a breath (Akin), the roiling of clouds and the frantic motion of ants (Threshold). These particulars of imagery suggest all manner of processes that unfold through multiplicitous scales of time and space: processes elemental, primordial, biological, meteorological, geological, cosmic, quantum. With them, I hope to suggest the sublime and daunting culmination of all energy and matter. There is also a preoccupation with non-human experience in the videos, a recognition of sameness and difference, areas of overlap and instances of stark and utter disparity.
