How can one’s body recall grie­vous expe­rien­ces and let emo­ti­ons resurfa­ce whithin a limi­nal spa­ce bet­ween dream and rea­li­ty?
An Awkward Friend
is a sen­so­ri­al attempt to draw nea­rer to the embo­died sen­sa­ti­ons and memo­ries around the loss of my father. With the com­pli­ci­ty of my friend Ine, we cre­a­te ima­gi­na­ry spa­ces for dis­com­fort and uncan­ni­ness to emer­ge and reso­na­te, for ghosts to appear, and for time to flow, expand and some­ti­mes collapse.
