rabbit hole
// Welcome to the
I’m an artist and filmmaker with a background in cultural anthropology, which might explain why so much of my creative practice starts with curiosity. I notice something, follow it down a rabbit hole, and see what comes out the other side.
This is where those rabbit holes lead: films, interviews, audio stories, writing, and other creative explorations about people, culture, place, memory, and whatever else I can’t stop thinking about. Some I make on my own, and others alongside my partner in crime and fellow collaborators through Bakás Creative Collective.
Consider this an ever-evolving archive of things I noticed, got curious about, and felt compelled to make something about.
