GREY, 2016 | Single-channel video, 17:29 min, with sound





GREY explores the tactile nature of melancholy. Through a sequence of unsaturated tableaux, the film portrays a small group of women in various urban and natural settings, evoking a delicate balance between immersion and detachment—an essential part of how we psychologically process reality. Melancholy is not merely an abstract feeling but something tangible, manifesting visually and materially. In its paradoxical beauty, it becomes a state of being both intimate and universal.
