The project focuses on close-ups of flowers ας elements of the beauty of nature and the spiritual uplift created by the connection with it. The modern fast-paced lifestyle often does not allow people to stop and contemplate on the natural landscape. In this Video the digital capture of blooms constitutes an optimistic record of nature, while at the same time it raises questions about humankind's alienation from nature and its enjoyment through the use of digital media.

BRAINRINTH is a multi-channel video installation. The work attempts – through technology – to approach brain-related functions of memory, drawing on material from personal experience of the body in crisis. The title BRAINRINTH –from the words Brain and Labyrinth – is a play on the intractable riddle of an archetypal Greek structure (the labyrinth) and the labyrinthine processes of the human brain. The BRAINRINTH installation seeks a poetic mapping of the human brain.
Due to the shock of trauma, our understanding of the functioning of the body, and of nature itself –which we are trying to dominate – seems desperate and full of anxiety. Taking this into account, if we adopt a position in which we keep a distance of aesthetic neutrality, perhaps this reality begins to look less frightening.
