'The Lego Movie' Brilliantly Subverts Movie Tropes
The Lego Movie achieves great humor and story with a combination of childish comedy, adult references, irony, and by subverting popular movie tropes.
Almost There
A floating female body. Positioned within an age-old theatrical device, the floating figure conjures the illusion of a hologram, achieved through the Pepper’s Ghost technique of reflection. Inspired by historical female mystics such as Teresa de Ávila and Christina the Astonishing, who were believed to possess the ability to fly or levitate, the work celebrates the transcendence of earthly boundaries. Beyond its technical and aesthetic layers, Almost There explores the fluidity between the tangible and the intangible, delving into the space between physical constraints, inner pressures, and mental elevation.

Escaping Reality in "Anora"
As a huge fan of Sean Baker’s Tangerine, The Florida Project, and Red Rocket, I’ve wanted to watch Anora since before it even was released.
