„SOUVENIR“ at IKFF Hamburg, International Film Festival Edinburgh and Moscow International Experimental Film Festival

 

 

Film as a conductor through which to capture and evoke episodes of ritual and transfiguration, visually and sensorially.

A dreamlike excavation of layers of folklore and presence imbued within the landscape, invoked through movement and ancient field recordings; and the process of reclamation of erased cultural narratives conjured by a sequence of potent performative gestures. The transformation of physical artefacts into sacred objects; and a journey taken across the east coast of Taiwan shot on hand-processed Super 8 film sets in motion an exploration of colliding manifestations of spirituality.
