Sermon Jeff (1993) is a Brussels-based artist and filmmaker working across film, video installation, photography, and text. He holds a Master’s degree in Audiovisual Arts from l’ERG (École de Recherche Graphique) and a Bachelor’s degree in Film from LUCA School of Arts. His work explores landscapes as living archives, shaped by human and non-human histories, memory, and absence. Drawing on Avery F. Gordon’s concept of haunting, Jeff approaches landscapes as sites where the visible and invisible coexist. Through rituals such as walking, observing, and documenting, he examines questions of proximity and distance, identity, and the relationship between body and environment, from urban Brussels to rural spaces. Jeff is co-founder of zorm collective, an audiovisual collective based between Brussels and Rotterdam, where collaboration, ritual, and experimentation are central to the creative process. His work has been screened and exhibited internationally at film festivals and art spaces across Europe, the Americas, and online. Jeff is currently based in Brussels and works in Dutch (native), English, and French.

    paper Four times

    Four times is an experimental meditation on the cyclical nature of seasons, landscapes and relationships. The film captures the evolving beauty of the same forest each season. Conversations with my partner, recorded upon awakening, are heard over these serene images. These conversations reveal subtle shifts in our communication. As the light in the forest changes, so does the intimacy between us. The film raises questions about how the rhythms of nature reflect those of human connection.
