"What can an exiled son do for his starving people? And of what value unto them is the lamentation of an absent poet?" - Gibran Khalil Gibran.
I'm sure that Khalil Gibran went to his grave with this question... But after writing, directing, shooting and editing films/videos for the last two decades I've found that the act "of asking" is the closest we come to "truth."
My work attempts to dialogue between two dominant forces that I believe frame most human expressions: Fear and Reverence.
