Single channel video. 9 minutes

In Aerosol Parasol Jump (2022), human pollinators drift in and out of the screen as they caress, poke, and brush the fragile pistils and stamens of fruit and vegetable blossoms. Thumbs, forefingers, and Q-tips trace the spaces left vacant by the decline of once-reliable agents of propagation: birds, moths, beetles, and, of course, bees. Images hover and blend together, an analogue for ecosystem interdependencies. The video is a poetic exploration of pollination as a network of ecological movements, shifting ecosystems, species loss, and fragile affiliations.”
