Over the last 20 years I have been developing a language for communicating social/political realities in visual media, through almost imperceptible digital manipulation of slow and extended recorded moments. The desire to truthfully depict an intimate exchange with — and insight into — lives other than my own is the motivating force behind my effort. At the same time (and perhaps especially), my work can also be described as an exploration of the inevitable, yet nuanced, failure of this very act of representation.
