Private Project

Islands of Our Bodies

"It began with one woman’s journey into her body. A confrontation started, between herself and the body she had been carrying for many years now. As she looked closely into what her body had been trying to say, she heard echoes from a world she had failed to see before, and all this time, it was living inside her."

"Islands of Our Bodies" is a multi-media project where we inquiry into the body of women. We are exploring the implications of dealing with the body through abstraction, fantasy, and the reality of the physical body. This project began as a commissioned multi-media exhibition for Photo Kathmandu, 2018. This is an attempt at recreating that world through film.
