I essentially work with audiovisual media (video, film and photography).
Video with soundtrack will be the medium I will use during my residency in Sumu.

1
- The starting point of an idea is to collect some stories from local inhabitants of the archipelago and make a video work based on the collection. The whole video should become a sort of journey through time and seascape, at the light of fragmented portraying shots of the stories tellers.

2
- Another project is a video about the concept of evolution and erosion.
I think of natural erosion but also of the loss of layers, of coverings… Here as well,
the natural landscape of the islands would certainly be used.
