Experiencing Interruptions?

Shout Into the Nothingness

What constitues a rhyme in the deaf world? What is wordplay when communication involves the whole body? Can you feel poetry through your bones while seated in front of the screen, rather than merely hearing or seeing referential symbols?

A poem reveals itself through the intimate close up of talking hands. The barrier between societal expectations and personal life goals takes on a metaphor of a simple chair.

Director Statement

My work tends to shed light on the ways humans approach communication. The main creative goal of my projects is to reveal the nuances of interaction using tools borrowed from arthouse cinema; with both, an intentional awareness and self-inflicted distance from the stale classic forms.
