About this Video


During the first Lockdown I lost my "Daytime Job", I started studying and got my micro Masters Integrated Digital Media at New York University.

I designed an application as a graduation project. I made a movie related to that application because I found it fascinating. It's called Taro named after the famous Tarot games. Barbie dolls as artefacts or "remixed" objects, a new goal in life, touching topics such as racism and homophobia. It is mysticism, magical. I wanted to produce a video that reflects current society.
