Inspired by Scottish philosopher David Hume’s writings on desire where he proposed that individuals are a compilation of desires that are always in flux.

The video uses sculptural, poetic and performative elements, to explore the fluid nature of desire and the longing for safety and home. The video is a contemplative work that explores the tension between feminine desires and anxieties.
