Water Simulations
Video Installation, Three channel video, 00.05:00 (loop), 2016
This work was created during my residency at the NSCAD Studio Community Residence in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Immersed in a place shaped by sailing, boatbuilding, and maritime life, I became absorbed by the water - spending hours observing and documenting its rhythms and shifting surfaces.
Inspired by Yoko Ono’s Sky TV, which transposes the act of cloud gazing onto a screen in the gallery through a live feed of the sky, this piece reflects on the practice of “water-gazing.” Here, however, the experience is reimagined as a simulation, composed of three moving photographs of the bay.
The accompanying soundscape (accessible via icon below) layers whistles, hums, breath, and the rustle of fabric to echo the wind moving across the sea—a murmuring simulation of water and air within the stillness of the gallery.

My Sister Is a Shadow
Video Performance, 00.07.39, 2021
Touch is such a critical part of our everyday relationships. For a time, the pandemic removed the normalcy of quotidian interaction, and friendly gestures that show support through touch. I had not hugged my twin sister in over a year. This piece emerged from that longing to hold her, to reach for her across the flatness of a screen.
In this live gesture that interacts with digital animation using a green-screen on Zoom, I reach out to embrace and move with a graphically rendered shadow of my sister. In this animation, I illustrate my sister’s body as a pastel blue shadow : a placeholder of her presence.
A shadow embodies both presence and absence, reflecting our twinhood: separate yet inseparable. In this moment of virtual embrace, the piece bridges distance, celebrates togetherness, and extends tenderness to all who supported me through that time.
