My video work navigates shifting perspectives around personal experiences, defining their place in our societal moment. Addressing issues both intimate and societal, including unemployment, family dissolution, immigration, and discrimination, I produce videos that stride the fine line between documentary and fiction. My process consists of multiple stages. It starts out open-ended as I follow my curiosity, collecting information related to firsthand experiences: sound recording my daily life and conducting video interviews. On a large piece of paper, I then diagram complex maps of ideas outlining and contextualizing the information I gather, which later evolves into storyboards and scripts for my videos. My current video trilogy, including Clinch and when stretched too thin, consists of narrative videos told from the perspective of female leads. As the characters are confronted with the difficulties of immigration, unemployment, and alienation, the work details the psychological effects brought upon by the current socio-economic landscape in the U.S. Providing glimpses of life and moments of discovery through different characters and interviewees, my work draws on memory, trauma, agency and relationships.
