SHION
Miya and I linked our movement research by filming short scenes in front of the Pacific and Atlantic ocean in BC and Nova Scotia, respectively. Stills from each of our videos were lined up side by side, aligning the horizon line of the oceans. I’m so grateful to have connected with Miya through this collaboration, and to have made a new lifelong friend.

Still images taken from video layered of me and Shion by the ocean, both faraway on opposite coasts of Canada. Our bodies are like echoes, only coming into clear view when overlapped by the other. The sky, waves and beach are layered composites of the Atlantic and Pacific.
