Two adult siblings, confined to their childhood home, live under the lingering presence of their parents, whose memory is mirrored in a portrait on the wall. They strive to preserve their existence through a “sacred ceremony” of nourishment and cleansing. Trapped in the family’s gilded cage, they become both inmates and bathers, with heightened senses that console and are consoled, faithful to rituals that have vanished from modern times, where everyone is violated by the rush of time. In a classic urban house, marked by decay, they tend to each other like young mammals in the wild— with love, with exposure, with violence, frustration, and shame.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a trans body dreams of the birth of night.
The corner of a street is matched and mixed with the chant of a bird recorded on that same street. A symbiotic relationship is triggered: the rapid and successively repetitive montage cuts between the image of the street and the corners of the video frame itself produce new textures and shapes in our brain, whilst the sound follows the same rhythmic movements by emphasizing different “corners” (frequencies) from the bird’s singing. The energetic potency stemming from the junction of these elements creates a new image that is almost tactitle, maleable and rippling. The result is a somewhat humorous operation of the portuguese word "corner" throughout the different stages of making the piece, finally unveiling a piercing physical and kinetic experience for all the corners of our eyes and ears.
Living in forests untouched by man, these gracious and mysterious fairies use their magical powers to send blessings upon Earth. Do not take their kindness for granted. Especially on the night when the sky opens.
"Untitled Sequence", is an artist film that explores the material processes of filmmaking such as visual narration, cinematography, soundtrack creation and film editing from the perspective of a young female artist – a perspective that is still under-represented in conventional filmmaking. The film engages with contemporary issues of identity and allegories of artistic practice, and is influenced by Jean Cocteau and Maya Deren’s films (particularly their creation of visual ‘dreamscapes’), Nobuhiko Ôbayashi (especially his editing processes) and Lee Miller’s embodiment of both the artist and the artist’s muse in her work both in front of and behind the camera.
