“An environment is worth a million words.”

Currently, I am developing ‘Womb of Stars’, a live cinema performance in collaboration with a musical artist Dasychira.

FILM


OVERVIEW
I’ve developed a deep appreciation for film — my latest medium to tell stories with — particularly for its capacity to convey intimacies through a unified dimensions.  

Beginning as a production designer, I’ve worked with directors and brands to translate their visions into immersive sets.  The latest work ‘Sea Lion Cow,’ directed by Ivan Cash, is an official Tribeca Film Festival selection 2024.

Currently, I am writing and directing my first narrative films to explore human emotions and desires.
