sucking all the knobs in the house I grew up in

Following a year of bereavement and convalescence in her childhood home, Biogal returns to the site in an attempt to summon psychosexual phantoms of a grieved body (or bodies) from familial space. Haunted both by the loss of a lover, and by the pubescent source of transsexuality, 'sucking all the knobs in the house I grew up in' was filmed surreptitiously on her family’s old MiniDV camcorder, whilst both parents were blissfully unaware, out-of-frame, still in the home. If a knob is a shiny thing at the threshold(ing) of here and not here, see how it feels to have one settle on your tongue, and then: suck.

SPIKA: Sowing Teeth

Beneath the polished floors of a contemporary art gallery, a new form of life is awakening, gradually transforming the urban space into a living, symbiotic system connecting humans with the realm of plants and bacteria. This speculative docufiction, shot on 16 mm film in response to the We the Bacteria exhibition at the Milan Triennale, imagines an alternative future for architecture told from the perspective of non-human actors. It explores the thorny structure of experimental architect Rachel Armstrong's SPIKA installation, which functions both as a fortress and an ecosystem, and outlines the possibility of urban buildings transformed into metabolic nodes of a new community.

An investigation into the wreckage of a B29 Flying Fortress which crashed on remote moorland at Bleaklow, in the Peak District. Drawing influence from the deep-mapping strategies of Michael Shanks and Clifford McLucas, this project combines new and archival footage with creative responses to produce a hybrid of documentary and experimental filmmaking. Several narratives of the location are coalesced, including the aircraft's former role as a photographic reconnaissance plane for nuclear tests on Bikini Atoll, the event of the crash and the artist's journey of discovery.

See it, say it, draw it

This film explores themes of identity and cultural transmission through the way we perceive and interact with our surroundings, highlighting the role of imagination in this process. Through the practice of drawing ethnographic objects at the Manchester Museum, it reflects on how we gain knowledge, understanding, and a sense of self by seeing, collecting, categorising, naming, and creating. The film invites viewers to reconsider how interaction with objects can transform perception and meaning.
