Lockdown work. Video shorts.

…………………………………

During the Lockdown of 2020,
I dedicated time to making Video Shorts as an outlet for creativity
and as a way of cradling mental sanity.

A Sense of Dawn
(il Verso dell’Alba)

This film was a commission from the culture office of my Town Hall.
They wanted a filmed performance to mark the stepping away from severe quarantine to the next phase of opening up.
The Photographer / Filmmaker, my collaborator, was Francesco Ferrarini.
