Under Reconstruction (2020): 8 min
In Under Reconstruction (2020) an unknown terrain is explored of a building being demolished. Three entities become self-aware through each other's presence. The machine comes to life, while some characters still retain elements of objects within themselves. Slowly, the non-living is broken down.

Review Under Reconstruction (2020)
''Nice with the muted palette. My associations were about house as body / inner psychic space and attempts at integration where parts of the self screen things out and other parts break down barriers for integration. I liked the use of doorways and natural light and the tension around the destructive/ penetrative machinery. Sort of necessary destruction in order to grow? The woman in grey has a good camera presence. Photography and framing pretty nice, cohesive... ''
