My work is concerned with the ability of video to transcend time and place. I am interested in the process of documentary film as a means to engage the audience in a life that is far removed from their own. My goal is to breakdown the barriers of traditional static narrative to explore new means of story telling that express place and characters in a more intuitive, affecting manner. My work has moved towards collage form documentary. I use antiquated cinematic techniques and new technology to produce a rich and textured representation of reality. I am interested in creating cinema that aesthetically reinforces the story and themes expressed.
