Observatory is a hybrid work using 16mm motion picture film strips, which have been hand processed and drawn, as a starting point. They have been transformed into recycling digital loops of texture and image. This commissioned work seeks to translate experimental filmmaking practice to the digital realm. It also explores the relationship between the language and texture of hand drawn film and the experience and politics of abuse and trauma.
