Working with the moving image, I approach film as a temporal and relational practice—one that resists immediacy and efficiency in favor of duration, attention, and embodied presence. My work is rooted in observing how time is lived, shared, and negotiated through everyday gestures, particularly within contexts shaped by distance, displacement, and quiet forms of labor. 

In this work, I return to a house that is no longer a home in the absence of my grandmother. Through moving images in which the perspectives of the house and myself intersect, alongside cyanotype stop-motion animation, I explore how collapsed memories continue to tremble, shift, and regenerate in the present. Through cyanotype animation, I move toward a nonlinear flow of time, creating a space in which memory, dream, the virtual, and reality coexist in a state of entanglement.
