Happy to share that my short film, How to Download a Forest, will premiere at @fipadoc this January!

I made the film during my last few months in Portugal. Shot at the Herbarium of Coimbra in the north and all the way in Altura down south where I followed botanical scientists on an expedition. It was strangely the calmest I have ever been while making a film and the most fun I’ve had researching and exploring. Making this film helped converge my practice towards a single point of interest - Data. It’s collection, maintenance, erosion, rebuilding, shape-shifting.

Always grateful for people who let me point my camera at them.

Will share more details about the film, the people in it and those who helped make it soon.

Until then enjoy this poster I made with Sanket Jadia’s unlimited patience for all my graphic design panic calls.

It was a blast to create this stop motion animation visualising @a_naturalists_column’s incredible research about migratory patterns of insects in the Indian subcontinent. About how insects move in choreographed but seemingly invisible patterns all around us.

You can watch the full video on @darknlightzine’s website along with other very exciting ecological projects including the recently concluded, Cataplisms which was a lot of fun to follow.

Grateful for the sweetest @patranimacchi for bringing me on board and to @rounakmaiti for his intuitive and thoughtful soundscaping.

In late 2023, we got the opportunity to collaborate with the lovely @annettexjacob on a video for @asiaartarchive.

During the last two years, the @asiaartarchiveinindia team has been meticulously researching and digitizing the personal archive of the late Indian sculptor, Mrinalini Mukherjee. The film uses the archive as a case study to introduce the archiving work of Asia Art Archive, especially how connections and propositions can be drawn from the archiving process to reveal what cannot be seen about an artist's practice.

Annette directed, shot and edited the film, and we stepped in with the animation with her art direction. The animation attempts to replicate how the process of archiving feels, and the repetition in Mrinalini Mukherjee's work. It was super fun, sourcing images from the archive, learning so much about the artist in the process. Animating this made us also feel close to what the archivists must have felt, drawing connections across images and stitching them together into a narrative.

Thanks for bringing us on board, Annette! Watch this space for more snippets from the project. Watch the full film on the @asiaartarchive channel :)

Animation by @deeptimegh of Paus

In February 2024, @tianji.yu and I walked quietly through Budapest trying to make a film before the assignment deadline passed. After being refused many times, we finally met Gholam, who generously agreed to let us film him. We had no idea what we wanted to make and so we decided to play.

Made entirely of images, Munkásszálló (worker’s hostel) is (almost) a fictionalised doc about an old building in the industrial neighbourhood of Kőbánya that is under heavy renovation. Each time the workers take a break the building breathes a sigh of relief. The film exists at the moment where a man’s daydreams and the building’s memories collide.

Part stop motion, part reality, part invisible man magic tricks, this was a lot of fun to work on.

We never heard back from Gholam after he saw the film.

The last two years at @docnomads were life’s surprise gift to me. Made 9 attempts at making films while planting a home in 3 cities all the while being held by the most amazing people. Looking back, it’s incredible that life felt the way it did. Now it’s all done, things are quiet and I would like to rest.

A precursor to ‘After Me’ was ‘Digital Fantasy’ which developed from the need to deal with grief through the coldness of an object.

The Wig entered our house as a strange guest. It was met with shock - at its sudden arrival - and laughter - for how badly it did its job. What it failed at concealing, it made up in absurdity. Wearing it helped my mother be someone else and this soothed her pain. Months passed and she got better, her hair grew back but the Wig was still around - neatly lodged on a ball of newspaper. “Why do you still have it?” “What if I got sick again? Wigs are expensive.” And so, it stayed as preparation for possible grief.

Left with nothing to do, the Wig surveys its distorted kingdom of prime time news and magic shows, whilst falling deeper into a dream.

Music 🧚🏾‍♀️ @rounakmaiti’s compositions wrapped the film in its dreamlike soundscape.

Digital Fantasy, Experimental Documentary, 3.30’
