The Gap, 3'00 excerpt (original 13'30), 2023
The Gap is a short film that emerged from a series of workshops held with students during an artist residency at Instituto Buena Bista (IBB) on the island of Curaçao. The film follows two protagonists, Jane and Rey, who discover a message in a bottle on the beach. As they read and attempt to interpret its meaning, their conversation leads to personal reflections and associative places. The result is a vibrant, sun-kissed film poem that delves into the subjectivity of language and images.
