Public Space (2022)

Experimental Documentary, 23 minutes




Filmed in the summer of 2020, Public Space explores occupied territory in the United States via the history of Seattle and the development of its scenic parks system. Through the tension of urban history and the parks' contemporary inhabitants, the landscapes of past and present come crashing together to reveal a mass erasure of indigenous presence.
