Pink Reef directed by Chloe de Brito @debreets In a suburban house with no running water, a lonely mermaid’s surroundings collide with her subconscious when water begins to leak from the ceiling. Trapped in a suburban dysphoria without running water, mermaid Jules (Bernie Van Tiel) is overwhelmed by loneliness. In an effort to make contact with something living, Jules asks “is anyone there?” into her shellphone but receives no clear response. When water begins to leak from the ceiling, Jules’ subconscious and surroundings collide in an explosive confrontation with her own identity.

Thrilled to announce that my short documentary ‘Las profundidades de la memoria’ will have its world premiere at the @melbfilmfest in Documentary Shorts! Shot in México in 2023, this film is a delicate sharing of the story of a woman named Martina that I met serendipitously in the town of Tekal de Venegas. After spending some time getting to know one another, she admitted that she had a story she wanted to share on camera. A sinister story that shaped her and her family’s lives. Despite its gravity, she has struggled to tell them what really happened. Las profundidades de la memoria is a haunting of these memories. Deep gratitude to Martina, who welcomed me into her home and shared with courage and honesty. Thank you to @playlab_films @bonnettestephania for making this journey possible via the Creators Lab program and to @apichatpong_weerasethakul for his guidance. And to the beautiful community who supported my travel to Mexico via @ausculturalfund , thank you 😍😍😍 Big love to the small yet mighty team who helped get this over the finish line with affection and sensitivity - editor @r.olalia , sound designer Joe Mount, colourist @fergrotherham , graphic designer @nicolasventurelli and artist @art_imanirannejad for this beautiful poster ❤️❤️ and @camerahire for the support.

Last winter @samsungau invited me to direct a 10 mins looped site-specific, interactive and immersive show ‘Space To Dream’ for @vividsydney and it was EPIC! Some of the most fun I’ve had on a project ever AND scooping up a casual 1.2 million pairs of eyes. Custom 12-18m tall floating towers were mounted up so we could fly @teevella over Cockle Bay in Sydney’s iconic Darling Harbour! A custom wharf was built so visitors could walk through AND phones offered a touch-sensitive way to interact with the visuals. Creating this work was a total beast and done with a gorgeous team including sound design and music by @milan.ring , @georgiamoraitis_ @collider__ for producing and @glenn_stewart_ @collider.studio for VFX magic. And of course thank you to Lucy at Samsung and the clever agency folk at @weareamplify , especially CD @ed_hallam for being fab collaborators and giving me this platform! Lots of love to darling @lukeafuller who documented the show across a few trips. Scroll for some tests and yum BTS. Much love to the beautiful homies who gathered together to bring my aquatic dreams to the sky!
