DIGITAL

My digital video works explore the city as an emotional and symbolic space in flux. Through visual abstraction, rhythmic editing, and original soundtracks I compose, I transform urban landscapes into layered expressions of memory, resilience, and transition. Whether mapping the motion of megacities or the introspective pull of coastal journeys, each piece builds on earlier series like Cadastres Exquis, Alphabet Bay City, and The Lake Dream Series.

Pacific Terminus: a poetic video meditation on change, memory, and becoming

PACIFIC TERMINUS


Pacific Terminus is a poetic video meditation on change, memory, and becoming—tracing my move from San Francisco to Los Angeles along California’s Highway 1. Framed by a symbolic hexagon and guided by an ambient-electro score I composed, the piece explores emotional transition through surreal color, liquid motion, and geometric stability. It is a love letter to what we leave behind—and to what waits ahead.

Movement as transformation

The California coastline becomes a dreamscape, where the past is tinted by nostalgia and the future glows with uncertainty. The landscapes are heavily colorized and processed, creating a surreal, otherworldly palette that reflects the emotional saturation of farewell and becoming. Each scene is anchored by a floating hexagon—a symbolic structure evoking strength, interconnection, and balance. As a sacred geometry often associated with harmony in change, the hexagon in this work becomes a portal: a space where movement and stillness coexist.

A cyberpunk hallucination born of symmetry and speed.

NIGHT SHIFT


Night Shift is a 7 min digital video meditation on mega-cities like Los Angeles, Tokyo, Seoul, seen as an urban trance-machine. Through mirrored time-lapse footage and a post-punk inspired soundtrack, the city becomes a luminous, cyberpunk totem—where mega-highways and glass towers dissolve into abstraction. Inspired by Blade Runner and Baudrillard’s concept of the holographic real, the work explores how speed, light, and repetition transform reality into ritual.

Urban velocity refracted into ritual and light

Here, the emphasis is on acceleration and overload—what Jean Baudrillard describes as the holographic condition:

“America is a gigantic hologram… things appear made of an unreal material, shifting in the void like a special effect.”

Night Shift is an invitation to drift into that effect—to enter the city's ghost architecture and glimpse the rituals encoded in its speed, symmetry, and light.
