Spill a Little Tea
Spill a Little Tea reimagines Delaroche’s The Execution of Lady Jane Grey as a contemporary act of witnessing and resistance. The work draws on the quiet tension of the original painting, transforming it into a space where suppressed voices rise to the surface. “Spilling tea” becomes both confession and revelation—stories once hidden now shared, honored, and believed. This piece stands for women across time who have been unjustly killed, abused, or silenced. By revisiting a historical moment of innocence and powerlessness, the work insists on remembrance, accountability, and the urgent necessity of speaking truths that were never meant to disappear.

My film shows the priceless human freedom, its slavery in the social system. I hope this film will give people at least a minute to think about their existence.

Heaven & Hell
In this film, I’ve sought to create a multi-sensory audit of a world in collapse, bridging the widening chasm between political hypocrisy and our fractured social reality. By centering the film on the recurring motif of a fraying flag, I wanted to expose the terrifying fragility of democracy as it buckles under the weight of human greed. I chose to set this human turmoil against the indifferent majesty of nature—where falling snow and rising oceans serve as a silent witness to our choices. Complemented by Veryan’s haunting soundscape and Liz Helman’s narration, the work stands as a cinematic elegy for the marginalized. Ultimately, it is a poetic reminder that while the powerful debate our future, the heaviest burden is always borne by those least responsible for the crisis.

SLEEP VIDEO
'Sleep Video' is an exploration into the subconscious mind and a look into the mysticism of the night, obstinate remaining despite the enlightenment of the modern world. As the stream-of-consciousness prose poem 'Conscious Thought from Late Evening Until Morning' that 'narrates' the video suggests, this project attempts to breakdown and visualise the bizarre and fevered chaos of the dreaming mind using rational and matter-of-fact language and imagery. I find black and white highly dramatic, less destructive compared to colour, and it creates a fitting atmosphere for the subject of the film. Sometimes our illogical, obscure, and chaotic dreams are remembered in black and white.
