I am a filmmaker and artist who utilizes moving images to address questions of visibility, sense and memory. Concerned with the politics of visuality and the material constitution of images, my work is grounded in expansive documentary and poetic forms. My current projects attend to the imagination of landscape as monument, the distribution and naturalization of toxic and hazardous materials, and how legacies of waste affect sensory capacities.
