Owl Breathing (2010)

1 min 24 secSingle channel / Digital Video / Colour / Sound

"My work examines humanity’s inherent relationship with the natural environment as well as the animalia that live within it. By isolating a single subject or object, a moment is silently observed. Evoking a slowing of pace in which a meditative element is present, the work serves as a link to reconnecting - with environment, with other living things and ultimately, with self."
