   The passing of time is evident as the celestial canopy continues its constant transition through out the year.  This project finds its inspiration in the attempt to contain any given moment. Identifiable markers of time like footprints , shadows, scars and stains have been replaced by notions emanating from memories, dreams and mathematical abstraction. 
Through the process of art making all these components come together combined through aesthetic decision making that acts to illustrate something greater than we are able to perceive.

Synopsis:
Made in collaboration with visual artist, Beth Hoeckel, Green Water is a collaged animation using archival magazine photography and advertizements to create a domestic world in which a woman travels through rooms in search of the perfect easter basket. Utilizing mid-century and 1960s imagery and color pallets, a imaginary space is created with simple movements, rich sound design, and a linear narrative. Green Water is subtle yet impactful story telling through collage and animation. Easter is here and things are getting strange.
