Synopsis

Troscurpos: From the Crown to the Wind (2024) is a video poetry exploring colonial legacies, contested resources, and migration. Set in the Caribbean, spectral human forms in perpetual metamorphosis open a dreamlike portal to a frozen oil machine, reflecting tensions between light and shadow, slavery and freedom. The work meditates on memory, history, and the fragile persistence of human and ecological landscapes, inviting viewers into a contemplative space where past and future, intimate and universal, converge in poetic reflection.
