Bleed

To be human is to bleed. Blood is life and our lives are such that we cannot help but bleed them into others. Life is a shared experience with or without intentional participation. Lack of presence is a form of presence; to be unknown is a form of being known. Every decision is effective; this speaks to our interconnectedness as a species. We are a community of proximity and on the scale of the universe, the earth is but a single point.

Alcohol based markers on paper, animated by hand then soaked in alcohol to affect the process of bleeding. Digitally compiled, meant for large-scale projection in a setup that forces the viewers to stand in the way of the projection. Thus the film ‘bleeds’ onto them and others in the space as the experience envelopes everything.
