Painting is where the formal language of my moving image work emerges from, full of colour and a compulsion towards sensuous detail. It is a medium that offers my practice materiality and a different time code to that of digital video. I approach the movement of imagery across both media as a form of translation, curious about what details are lost or gain visibility and the different cultural connotations underlined by each medium.

‘F.L.A.G.’ is a single channel video structured as a three part digestive act, placing the body in direct relationship to architecture through moments of ingestion, digestion and excretion. Using a bilingual script to weave in photos from my personal archive documenting family in Mozambique with architectural scale models in the studio. House and body are portrayed as sites of containment inflected by histories of European colonialism. Through surreal acts in ingestion/expulsion the video attempts to address how this history might be digested.
The video was originally exhibited at ‘Cleave’, part of the GI 2018 across the city programme, alongside two sculptures, ‘Shelter (hot blue scream) I & II’.
Additional screenings at:
Outpost Members' Show selected by Jessica Warboys, Outpost, Norwich (2019)

Painting is where the formal language of my moving image work emerges from, taking on intense colour saturation as a means to create heat and refer to particularity of place. It is a medium that offers my practice materiality and a different time code to that of digital video. I approach the movement of imagery across both media as a form of translation, curious about what details are lost or gain visibility and the different cultural connotations underlined by each medium.
