"Cinema is both a prevalent and powerful medium, which is incredibly influential upon how people perceive reality around them. The addition of numerous cultures and ideologies has cultivated an extremely diverse society, and consequently it is easy for people to feel fragmented in their sense of identity.

It is this instability that has been the subject of my fascination for the past few years, which is particularly appropriate while experiencing something as life-changing university. I intend to spend at least the next year travelling abroad in order to immerse myself in different cultures and lifestyles.

I currently work with video, experimenting both in visuals and sound design, all of which is heavily informed by academic research in visual culture and philosophy, amongst other disciplines. As it remains a fairly new medium for me, it is perhaps particularly relevant for discovering new and unusual ways to explore identity and human experience".
