The first three videos: Falling, Drowning, Burning represent the theme 'Death by Proxy'. They focus on the wedding dress as a symbol of expectations of woman in Western society. Along with Thanatos they form part of a body of work on the struggle between Eros and Thanatos. Media used include distressed fabric, two hand made wedding dresses, a veil and a tailor's dummy. All these videos were made in 2006 or 2007.
Floating focuses on the destructive nature of the elements and is part of a new series of video paintings started in 2009.
