After visiting the Anthony McCall exhibition at the Tate, the experience of light, space, and mist left a lasting impression—it felt like stepping into a dream. Inspired by this, we returned days later with a camera, without a plan, and began filming.
Afterwards, we each created our own film using the same footage, like an exquisite cadaver collaboration, exploring where our instincts would converge and diverge.
This is my interpretation—A Disappearing Act:
Two women drift between presence and absence, seeing and being seen, caught in the liminal space between waking and dreaming. Boundaries blur; one crosses over, glimpses the unfamiliar, and returns transformed. Identities collapse and merge. The dreamworlds they inhabit bleed together. By the end, they are one—or perhaps neither. A quiet act of disappearance. A release. A disappearing act.
