Weathering / Whethering

2026

Super8 film

2min 18sec

Take rain on a frigid day as it falls down and creeps into small cracks in between. As the night comes and the water freezes, forcing the rock apart from within, it splits like a seam under pressure. Weathering is slow, but no rock on Earth is hard enough to resist it.

Whethering, a word without fixed dictionary meaning, but what I understand as being inside the question, between two or more possibilities, before any of them settles.

Exhibited in the EKA Gallery group exhibition Photography Speciality Project 1 (2026)

Selected for the Labocine July 2026 issue FIELDS OF PLAY.
