INTERWOVEN INTERVALS (6 min, 4K, 2026)

A material hybrid of film and textile, as the intermediary device of a laser printer transcribes weaving patterns onto strips of 16mm clear leader, connecting the material process of handmade films with hand-crafted textile production. Pattern drafts are the graphical score for weaving - grids of light and dark representing the over and under of weft threads between the warps. The printer strains to align the image, as powdered toner smudges and fibers peel away like stray threads. The graphic repetition of grids, lines, and squares assert a structural form that is fragile and vulnerable to erasure. In the archeological record, textiles are often lost to time. Here, a new form emerges – grids of ink and plastic, flickering projected light and dark.
