001 Cookie Butter

What does the world look like when your body feels like nothing more than an extension of a landscape of hate, constructed of concrete and gasoline? A place of dysphoria, not only of mind disconnected to body but self disconnected to place? 001 Cookie Butter is the first person experience of a dissociated psyche that is both comforted and paralyzed by overwhelming fear.

002 Heresy

Alone in our bedrooms we face the horrors of a political media machine designed to bring psychological torture and physical death to the trans community. Drenched in warm colors and brutal soundscapes, 002 Heresy becomes an explosive confrontation: only after facing the fear within can we make room for a transformation in love.

Screened at Translations: Seattle Trans Film Festival (2024)

and selected the “Best Experimental Short”

003 Dawn Chorus

Film gives us the ability to move above time, to survey our lives with clarity and peace. Leaving the bedroom, we find that despite political forces, Earth continues to grow (and so must we). 003 Dawn Chorus feels like the time of peace after a hurricane - given a harsh reckoning with all that there is to lose, we become new in our appreciation for the preciousness of life.
