A selection of my so-called "Spatial Portraits" with supplemental translations of audio, poetry or digital collage. Here I ask individuals to use only spoken language to describe a personal memory that triggers interpretation. I transform respondents' psycho-architectural melancholia into new formats. This series is often commission-based; if you're interested in a portrait, hit me up.

I interviewed Amir G. for about an hour about the time he spent as a teenager in his grandmother's basement. I saw no visuals but just asked for him to describe to me pieces of furniture, walls, thoughts and relationships.

Preview from upcoming film entitled, Eight Muses in a Bathroom.
In this short film, eight muses represent eight behaviors known to the contemporary bathroom. The hyper-theatrical narrative drives the muses on a deformed loop to rediscover their relationship with Restoration, Excretion, Defecation, Masturbation, Organization, Using, Company and Harm.
