Hello, Whale (2023) 13 minutes
Whales have hip bones that do not serve a biological purpose, indicating that they once dwelled on land. They are mammals that decided to leave land behind. I pin a wish for myself on this image of the whale whose experience I can never really know. Then I ask, what is the difference between out-casting yourself and truly leaving land behind? How do you come above deck and find your own spotting cry? A cry that isn't an urge to capture or possess the one you desire but an invitation (“hello”) to step into your world and feel safe.
