documentair - film - literair - schrijven - audiovisueel
I am a writer, artist, filmmaker and critic. In my writing and research, I dive into institutional oppression and generational trauma with empathy and criticality. Through writing, I find connections among autobiography (auto-ethnography), intersectional feminism, Black Studies and Postcolonial Studies — discourses that have inspired me.
Both my writing and filmmaking practices involve annotating and archiving. Although a common theme in my images is the search for sovereignty, my explorations of lens- and time-based media do not limit to the expression of such. For me, making image is an antidote to rootlessness, a tribute to taking care (of home, people, things) and a blending of visual and textual poetics.
