Experimental
short films.
Experimental shorts in which moving images are collaged with stills and layered with historical audio. Each film is a discrete, autonomous work — and each has also been shown inside the exhibitions, alongside the cyanotypes and sublimations they share material with.
The films extend the documentary encounter into time. Where the cyanotype holds the moment in place and the sublimation binds it to cloth, the films carry it forward as duration — the wind, the voice, the procession, the testimony. The field recording, the cyanotype, and the archival voice migrate into a single moving artifact.
Five shorts,
five encounters.
Field stills, moving footage, and archival audio gathered alongside the cyanotype and sublimation work. The film does not illustrate the still works — it carries the same encounter into duration.
Layered editing: stills hold, motion enters, audio shifts the register. The cuts follow the rhythm of the encounter rather than the conventions of documentary cinema.
Each film exists as discrete moving image — available as a screening file for festivals and programming, as a continuous installation loop alongside the related still works, or as a stand-alone projection piece. Editions are not numbered; each presentation is configured to its venue.
