Switching On Invader Network.
Year of production: 2015
Running Time: 3:36 min
The video is a tool of visualising the attempt of trying to remember a memory I don’t have - My screen constructs the memories. I have built the work to portray disruption, blockage, corruption and exile. Creating a barricade of information, as though the video is broken, similar to the Cypriot crisis and how the island and my family are fragmented. The video is based on a story of turning on the TV to be reminded of the memory the cartoons bring, corresponding with the political memories they trigger.
Remembering Session A.

Running Time: 2:15 min
Remembering Session A. is a short video created to convey the message of fragmented memory and loss towards the illegal invasion of Cyprus. I combine the personal attributes of family and home in contrast to news footage and archive of the illegally invaded land. Tracing back the memory route of political pain toward a home of the dispossessed. The video is created on behalf of the refugee voices, but also to audiences of digital operation, which works by bringing bodies of material into a melodious rhythm of disjointed collage.

Crossing is a play on words from the literal shape of the video piece, with it's actual meaning of crossing a poltical border. An overlay of footage through a moving car documents the forbidden territories in a painterly and romantic way.
