Window Work background

Window Work

A subtle yet evocative portrayal of everyday activities that hints at a deeper sense of mystery, set against a backdrop of soothing summer sounds.

A woman engages in mundane activities, such as drinking tea and reading the paper, which hint at a subtle mystery beyond the image. The sounds of crickets, toys, and thunderstorms create a sense of dislocation, transporting the viewer to a different time and place. Small film boxes within the larger screen serve as mnemonic devices, evoking memories of childhood and expanding the sense of immediacy in the "drama". These miniature images represent snippets of older film technology, feeling fleeting and ephemeral compared to real-time video.
