Body of Water
This short film explores the intricate relationship between the human body and water. When I think about water, my subconscious mind attaches to the feeling of hydration, the taste, the temperature, and the sensations on my skin and body. For this project, my goal was to capture these embodied experiences and the importance of this complex, life-sustaining substance. Through this exploration, I was compelled to focus more intently on these sensations, continuously staying present while falling in and out of a somewhat dissociative state. When floating in the water, I found it fascinating how differently the body feels; the altered sense of gravity and slowed movement creates an experience that feels almost otherworldly, as though we have access to another plane of existence. Big thank you to my amazingly supportive partner @djmourn, for capturing the underwater footage and creating the ambient soundscape, I couldn’t of done with without you
