Brief Description of Work:
Fragile is a video that deals primarily with theories of remembrance through a simple formal examination of the texture, rhythm, and color of a city at night. Shot on HI-8, this video deals primarily with the relationship that is created between the abstracted imagery, and the linear soundtrack that records my mother reading to my sister and myself as children.
Selected screenings
Fragile has been screened at the Winnipeg Film Group, WNDX Festival of Avant Garde and Underground Film, NSFF 20th Anniversary Retrospective, and is currently distributed by the Canadian Filmmakers’ Distribution Centre.
