SUNFLOWERS is an experimental film and installation edited through a TV recorder. It mixes non-fictional images shot by the artist with a handycam, and excerpts from vintage VHS tapes used as recording media throughout the creation process. The serendipitous encounters with unique and eerie memorabilia made the film grow and evolve into a hybrid and grotesque final cut, deepening its symbolism.

SUNFLOWERS can be understood as a meditative walk on the verge of two complementary and intertwined territories. The camera follows a human juvenile figure bathed in a gloomy aura, endowed with the ability to shift from the world of the Dead to the world of the Living.

Through the variation of aesthetics, color treatments, characters, and spacetimes, SUNFLOWERS generates an intricate and symbolistic narrative, fed by an experimental and unique creative process.
