Remnants 
	Photography series, 2024-25
Documentary short film,&#38;nbsp;2026

In the Midwest, pioneer cemeteries established during U.S. westward expansion are now some of the few places spared from development. Alongside the human remains they memorialize, these small plots of land have accidentally preserved remnants of the native tallgrass prairie, an ecosystem that has been almost entirely destroyed. Enclosed between cornfields and highways, these sites become crucial ecological archives where histories of destruction and survival remain uneasily intertwined.&#38;nbsp;Cemeteries are defined not only by their containment of death and loss, but also by ideas of care, remembrance, responsibility, and respect. These ethics are also the conditions for the ecosystem’s survival. 

A two-channel film, Remnants presents parallel views of pioneer cemeteries and the plants within them, exploring the expansive worlds within these small sites. The film traverses cemetery prairie remnants in Illinois, Iowa, and Indiana, in search of ecological memory, care, and renewal. &#38;nbsp;Alongside the film, I produced a photography series including medium format film and digital photos documenting various remnant prairie sites.&#38;nbsp;

You can email me to view a screener of the film.&#38;nbsp;

	Day/Dream
	2023 Video, Sound, Installation 
Collaboration with architect, Regina Teng


	Day/Dream is a video installation based in concepts of perception, dreaming, and collectivity, designed collaboratively by artist Sara Suárez and architect Regina Teng. Day/Dream was commissioned by Materials &#38;amp; Applications and first presented at the M&#38;amp;A Storefront in Los Angeles. &#38;nbsp;

As sunlight passes through lenses, bright flares and iridescence appear on nearby surfaces. These light patterns are called caustics, formed as light is bent by the curved surface of a reflective or refractive material. In architecture, the study of caustics has been limited primarily to visual effects, yet the term’s etymology derives from causticus, “to burn,” suggesting their thermal potential. Within the installation, an array of suspended Fresnel lenses works to passively cool or heat the space by mediating and redirecting sunlight, while offering inverted and magnified views of the worlds within and outside the space. This full-scale architectural model tests the thermal effects of various lens arrangements, manipulating optical logics to redefine transparency and its aesthetics within an ecologically conscious system.At night, Day/Dream suggests an interior dreamscape made through the refraction and recombination of nighttime dreams. Ocean imagery flows throughout the space, passing through the lenses to create spectacular visual effects. Over a series of public dream-sharing gatherings hosted by Suárez, participants co-created a “reservoir” of remembered dreams: a shared archive of images, sensations, symbols, and stories collected from the surreal terrains of sleep. This dream reservoir, reexpressed through video projection, soundscapes, and voice recordings, shifts rhythmically throughout the space, mediated by the lenses to cast refracted images and waterlike patterns of light. 
The composition centers and thinks with water: scarce, essential, and threatened in waking life, and a deeply resonant symbol that speaks to the fluidity of dreams and potentials of sharing resources. In a moment when our needs for liveable environments and new relationalities are increasingly urgent, this convergence of practices explores the radical, material potentials of seemingly ephemeral phenomena.

Oversight


	2023
Video (6 minutes)Photography, Direction, Editing: Sara Suárez Poem: Mal Young


Oversight pairs satellite and human landscape observations, alongside an enigmatic text passing steadily beneath the images. Parallel observers drift through downtown Los Angeles, in a silent reflection on vision, care and control.</description>

	Gathering Tides
	2023 
Text, Research, Social
Gathering Tides is a shared dream journal created through a series of social dream-sharing workshops designed and hosted by Suárez. Across five public gatherings, the series convened groups of strangers to share, listen to, and write with their dreams together to co-create a “reservoir” of dream materials — a shared archive of images, sensations, symbols and stories drawn from the surreal terrains of sleep. Gathering Tides envisions dreaming as an open, plastic space where we may reveal and cultivate radical modes of relationality, care and collective imagination. The series was commissioned by Materials &#38;amp; Applications in concert with Day/Dream.&#38;nbsp; The dream journal is anonymous and open to public editing.You are welcome to visit, read, and write in your own dreams.&#38;nbsp;

	Watermarks

	2018
Video, Film (14 minutes)


Watermarks is an expressive study of Richmond, Virginia, where post-Civil War monuments obscure the buried traumas of enslavement along the James River. Through analog film processes and unconventional sound design, the river becomes a line to trace a history that remains invisible beneath an illusory surface. Seemingly stable landscapes unfold to unearth a buried world, observing a land polluted by histories of violence and questioning how the past has been recorded or suppressed.
