ARTIST STATEMENT

My work has a focus on personal and material cinema in the experimental documentary vein. My methods include alternative photographic processes, hand-made cinema, found footage or creative reuse of media, stereoscopic 3D, and repurposed text. My area of expertise includes all aspects of 16mm film production, and particularly using creative structure in a film to allow discussion of complex or nuanced subjects. Ultimately, my goal is to continue to press for a public dialogue that is inclusive of poetics, hesitancy, and provocation (as opposed to pronouncement, certainty, and resolution), to engage diverse audiences, and to invite everyone to creatively redraw the boundaries of filmmaking.
