I like to play with timing and motion to create experiential kinds of physicality, and drama like something witnessed in passing on the street. My subjects move in some subterranean level, in new ways, utter parts of narratives to imply a bigger story - creatures, things or ideas having a quiet, mysterious, animated or reanimated life.
