Life cycles leave a snail trail across the screen. These video poems navigate the vast expanse of time with subtle, personal narratives that collapse the space between art and home, womb and grave, career and honey bucket. Through mantras, photographs, and windows the works in this showcase offer a glimpse into eternity while embracing the temporary.
