Claustrophobic point of view of the back of house of a restaurant in London. It is recorded in the early months of the lockdown, therefore hospitality industry was affected by the pandemic situation. Techno music and lack of natural light recreate a tense atmosphere, resembling a nightlife venue.

What we call history is only one version of the past. In the search for an ‘authentic’ understanding, our desire-turned-obsession with memory coincides with the fear of forgetting who we are.  ‘Until I Get Home’, explores the way individuals collectively recall events, people, and places.

Life is a Ritual

Art is about a process — a ritual. In my personal life, coloured ritual candles drip on their own with different factors affecting their flame, lifespan and remains.
