The Girl

2017 · 16 min

A slow, contemplative visual meditation that drifts between unease and awe, asking you to sit quietly with landscape and mood.

Tagline: short
Overview: In “The Girl,” art historical traditions of the panorama, landscape painting, and German-Romantic notions of melancholy and the sublime converge with the technological advances of cinema to create a powerful work that both unsettles and inspires.
