Inspired by the handmade films of Stan Brakhage and others before him, the textures and colors of this piece were made by hand-coloring 16mm film. These colorful, frenetic textures were then matted digitally with simple animated shapes and archival photographs. The resulting dreamlike visions of shorelines and seascapes tell of solitude, soul-mates and transformation. As so often happens in dreams, the story has it's own impossible logic; The dream has its own laws to govern its universe. It is only upon waking that the surreal nature of the narrative becomes apparent.
