Dawn to Dust

Dawn to Dust examines the position of man in relation to his environment and contemplates the impact this cyclical plundering of resources have on the personal as well as the collective human existence. Set in an ethos of geo-political displacement, mass exodus, mindless invasions and lost resistance, this piece is intended as an elegy to the present. Lamenting this cataclysmic involvement in mankind’s indiscriminate obliteration, this piece calls upon the viewer into a moment of collective mourning– an act of rebellion cloaked in communal suffering. Dawn to Dust is a mixed media video work that combines motion footage, found material and hand drawn images to weave a narrative.
