International Competition: We seize only a bit of the curtain that hides the infinite from us.

The haunting past reassembles itself, sometimes with permission, at times without. A former student, a father, a young woman and a young man wrangle with a history that intend to reveal and expose lingering dilemmas.
International Competition: I hear you, I see you, I speak of you

A meaning is decipherable. Yet a meaning of purpose is indecipherable. Wrapped in yearning and adversity - siblings resort to rivalry, a family is obliged to seek refuge, a newlywed wobbles in predicament while a community form bonds with one another.
International Competition: On the Pulse of Hope
16/01/22, 15:00
ICA

International Competition: And what remains is the maze

ICA
They had no words but to conceive their longing silently. Tethered by reality of others, men searching for passing love, a teenager fails to recognise herself, a mother to be is in despair at her community and a child's mind runs wild in quarantine. Today may look like tomorrow, but it's not the same.
