SALT

Stanza 5

SALT tells a story of ostracised grief.

​

Sitting as stanza 5, SALT has to be the most labour intensive out of all films, where my ultimate focus was to inhabit the element of SALT as deeply as I could, and remain in dialogue for sustained periods of time.

 

A powerful synchronicity swept through real time, the landscape, the body and life as it happened during Stanza 5.

 

Speaking a distinct language, it delivered the starkest mirrors where gut wrenching reflections of bone dry death, decay and the cruelty of human nature were laid bare - alongside breathtaking beauty.

​

SALT was a game changer in terms of how the films flow together in an arc, and in turn informed RAIN ON EARTH sitting as Stanza 6.​
