My films are inspired by seasonal themes and cultural refrains of the PNW.  Elements of our landscape interact with the materiality of celluloid film and guide a cameraless creative process. So that, moving images include our local geography and climate, plants and trees. Also, hydrography films are inscriptions of the movement of Puget Sound, the Salish Sea, Union Bay. I engage and explore the relation between light, movement and texture/tactility to create hand-painting, and cyanotype films. Following this direction, I experiment with phytography, home processing,  non-toxic chemistry made from local plants that I forage in my garden or on my walks along Seattle’s shoreline. The focus of my scholar work is on documentary film, the historiographical function of cinema, and considerations relating film aesthetics and spectatorship. My films have screened at Local Sightings NWFF, Engauge Experimental Film Festival. Earlier work was shown at Seattle Social Justice Film Festival. I have taught Digital Filmmaking to youth in Seattle and experimental film at Cornish College of the Arts.
