“Promises is based on a selection of sixteen images from my collection of old wedding photographs. The video transitions violently from one bouquet of red roses to another, focusing on the similarities that unite them. By animating still photographs in the form of moving images, Promises delves into the very centre of the images (the flower) with a nervous, blinking rhythm, as if searching for a message hidden beneath the surface.”
