Following Sydney's Cronulla race riots in 2005, Bloody Beach is a depiction of racial tensions in a small costal town of Australia.

Hindsight

In a contemporary reading of the Greek myth Orpheus, Hindsight takes the pivotal act of the story and explores relations between identity, image and desire, centered on concepts of the look in contemporary culture. It examines ways in which the act of looking back draws together temporal and spatial relations, exploring the interaction between memory, events and personal records / domestic archives.

It is experienced in an immersive audio visual installation projecting distinct scenarios on to three screens with a fully dircetional spatialised soundtrack. As a research project for the University of Bristol's Film & Television department, its aims were to centralize the spectator, allowing a degree of choice in the selection of events that unfold across and between the screens.
