Shot over the course of a year with a smartphone camera on location in Germany, Ireland, Italy and the USA, the video artwork Ribbon (2022) works through an audio-visual investigation of environment, and of the act of film-making itself, focusing formally and thematically on structures, transitions, lines, ruptures and repetitions. The structure of edits and visual material presented is are regulated by associations, bringing the viewer through a string of global locations and personally observed and embodied moments. The work exists in a two channel version (intended for looping) and single channel verison (intended for single play-through).
