Filmography

Cinetula |  Short Films

These films center on themes having to do with identity, spiritual issues and personal experience.

Filmmaking grew out of my work in photography. For a period,  a series of photographs were figure studies shot as time exposures. The next intuitive step was to put those studies into motion. A couple of experimental videos followed. The emerging purpose has been to hint at narrative without robbing imagery of its sovereign power, without loading an image with information. A painting, for example, loses strength when it leans on its meaning. With that in mind I began a series of short films shooting on Super 8. 

Film montage is a natural choice. Respecting the viewerʼs capacity to create narrative while drawing from oneʼs own experience remains paramount.
