A&D ANNUAL 2022

‘Séance of the Living’ combines storytelling with film, technology, and visual effects in an attempt to investigate various social issues that impact individuals today. Through conversations individuals are shown to navigate prejudices perpetuated by unsustainable foundations, which parts of today's society rely on. The work features a black hole; a representation of 'constant change' - an oxymoron that reflects the fluidity of society with the capacity to change, while also illustrating the seemingly inescapable cycles faced by minority members within society.
