tight grip, it makes me feel safe
Digital video with sound and 3D animations, 21:11, 2021
Nameless characters drift through a haze filled chapel. Their bodies exhibiting traits that mark them as ‘other’. They engage in acts of constriction, binding themselves and each other. The dense particles that dominate the air gradually infiltrates their bodies, pushing past the border of their skin and so the distinction between the internal and external slowly breaks down. Gradually, the space they inhabit comes to defy them.
