Austin

Directed by Chiemi Shimada

Austin is a journey through a young man’s private landscape. He does not appear on screen but through his soundscapes leading the audience through his home, exploring the space of his domesticity. The work is inspired by the artist's bereaved brother. She created a character based on her brother, replacing the scene from Japan to the UK, and created the work by looking at the traces of human presence through the still life, recalling the space of the house where he spent his last hours.
