Practice Towards Light

In collaboration with painter Yun-hee Huh, this work documents a year-long practice of filming the sunrise through multiple exposures on four 100ft rolls of 16mm film. Each of the four rolls represents a season (fall, winter, spring, summer) with seven separate sunrise shoots layered onto a single roll of film, creating a compressed record of time and light.

For Sama

A love letter from a young mother to her daughter, the film tells the story of Waad al-Kateab’s life through five years of the uprising in Aleppo, Syria as she falls in love, gets married and gives birth to Sama, all while cataclysmic conflict rises around her. Her camera captures incredible stories of loss, laughter and survival as Waad wrestles with an impossible choice– whether or not to flee the city to protect her daughter’s life, when leaving means abandoning the struggle for freedom for which she has already sacrificed so much.
