DIRECTOR REEL
DIRECTOR REEL
I see myself as a lighthouse in the middle of nowhere, creating a path for others. The reason I create films is to teach my parents to see another way of living. My stories explore themes of home, belonging, identity, and the body. Nowadays, you can find me working on my short "Tahira" and my radio documentary, “The Power of Names.” My visual body of work poses questions about family, home, roots of joy and pain, and origin. Art, to me, is a physical inner and outer body experience, evident in my exhibitions and projects..
POWER OF NAMES
An on-going series about our attachments, histories, and experiences with our names whether given, chosen, adopted, etc. Some of us keep our given names, somes of us don’t, in an age where we can be connected to so many people. How do we stand out? Or fit in?
