WW

WW is a psychedelic, sci-fi voyage into the darker recesses of consciousness. With its surrealist use of artifice and doubling, the video combines abstracted imagery with footage of a nameless woman performing a sequence of precisely choreographed gestures within a confined, futuristic space. This juxtaposition between the abstract and symbolic merges with an electronic sound score to create an unsettling investigation of the cataclysmic forces that underlie birth and death.
