I chose the comet as the subject of my project because I've always loved staring at space and dreaming. A comet is one thing almost every culture has looked up at and felt the same dread.
I wanted to see if thru the lens of syncretism I could help turn that ancient warning into wonder. Right now, comets (even a rare interstellar visitor) are streaking thru our solar system, stirring the same old fears. That synchronicity while being in a residency about syncretism seemed pretty hard to ignore.
By weaving science, lore, myth, memory, and energy with my art processes mixing traditional, glitch, and AI work, I was able to craft a short film that ruminates on the question:
What if the same light that once unified us in fear could now unify us in hope?
This is what came through.
This is The Comet.
