During my residency in Banff, I dug into previous work captured in Iceland in 2019. I combed through over 300 contemplative videos documenting the luminosity of the sky during summer solstice, and its reflection on the ocean’s surface. The act of filming became a type of correspondence with the landscape; a visual dialogue with the aura and patterns of nature. I made use of the valuable expertise of Visual Arts staff to refine my technical knowledge, and experiment with materials and processes to describe this experience.
