In "Formation" ideas become solid objects and vice versa, as if shape is a thought form and these forms are imprinted on our memory. The film was created from hundreds of analog photographs, compiled directly from the camera roll without any editing. The photographs sequence through landscapes and domestic interiors and snapshots. Iteratively etched into the prints’ surface are drawings of different objects; a conjoined pyramid, a sphere, that shift and travel as the film plays. The film returns again and again to the intangible, inscrutable drawings, until they materialize into physical form.
