About

The River Cycle is a ten-part series of experimental 16mm films that portray rivers from around the world as vessels of memory, disappearance, and survival. Shot solo using in-camera montage and handmade techniques, the series captures a dreamlike dialog between body, landscape, and light. The project seeks to shift how viewers engage with geography and time–foregrounding presence, patience, and geological intimacy.
