Film Series: This Is Not Sudden
This project explores how moving image can visualise collective pressure surrounding violence against women and the institutional systems that respond to it. The work focuses on everyday routines, gestures and traces within the wider epic structures of institutional power, political change and collective resistance.
Through a series of iterative film experiments, including stained legislation, bodily contamination and collective footprints, the project investigates how repetition, visibility and accumulation can build political pressure over time. Influenced by feminist theory and the “boiling frog” (Goltz,1869) thought experiment, the work explores how gradual forms of violence and political change become normalised through repetition and prolonged exposure
Local Election Results Day, 2026
This iteration documents women moving through London following the local election results, combining camcorder footage, layered voice recordings and ambient city sound to capture an atmosphere of collective unease. The work explores how political shifts can alter the everyday public space, focusing on small gestures, movement and observation.
The film examines how private conversations and anxieties between women can become part of a wider collective feeling.
