Ghost Strata

Ghost Strata refers to the missing elements within the rock strata that despite their absence offer clues to what was once there. The film is divided into the months of the year in which the footage was captured. Filmed in various places over the globe, charting various personal movements of the filmmaker, Ghost Strata explores the differing scales of impact that humanity’s presence has on the Earth in the past, present and into the future. Found sound and text create a meditation on time, memory, leftovers and extinction.
