The Field
First premiered at Whitespace Gallery as part of Short Shorts film festival '15.
If you don’t see it, then it never happened, and it doesn’t exist.
"The Field" is about attention economy and perception psychology. Inspired by the stories of the real people who are literally some other country’s problem in the growing migrant humanitarian crisis; the video explores hate, exposure and apathy. Wondering how someone could be full of hate, the sound is built from radio broadcasts about involving racism/xenophobia and the police/authority. These moral, legal and practical issues are not new problems but we escape them all the same. In this video, right and wrong may be ambiguous but ultimately, they are to be ignored.
