For example, if capitalism draws most of us to produce objects and move in a strong claimingly forward direction, then I should slow down and look beside me instead of ahead, watching for the tiny details and patterns that exist or searching for other types of motion.

''There is a crack, a crack in everything, That's how the light gets in.'' '''Leonard Cohen'''

Evident influences to my practice are experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage and manifesto-based moving picture makers, like the DOGMA group. Taking advantage of the flexible pace of time in this region, I'm changing the speed and motion of my vision, using camera tools and looking for what I could see and capture. My goal is to allow for poetic ways of looking and then assembling the images.
