    Albanian Ornithological Society: Vjosë-Nartë (2026)
    An audio-visual composition created out of a 4 day artist residency with the Albanian Ornithological Society, interweaving field recordings, music composition and super 8 film footage filmed on site. Scans of the film were later souped in estuarine solution and spliced together with painted film leader. This work serves as a speculative lamentation; a personal response to the construction of Vlorë airport within the Vjosë-Nartë protected landscape. I am honoured that it might offer some small contribution to the ongoing, large-scale movement opposing plans to build a $1.4 billion mega-resort on Sazan Island, backed by oligarch investors Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.
