Film_Post-shower
This film captures my personal routines, rituals, actions and movements post-shower. This is perhaps the most personal actions, for me, that happen within the bathroom. During this time I dry myself and apply my daily moisturizers and steroid cremes as part of my treatment for eczema. Because of this, the bathroom - in terms of showering and bathing - has become more of a chore than an enjoyment for me. Once again I have used the same camera technique (all 3 films were filmed at the same time) and the reflections of the body on the architecture suggest my movement within the bathroom.
Film_Showering
Carrying on from the previous uploaded film, this film captures my act of showering in my bathroom. In the same manner as the previous film, I have reflected myself subtly in the bathroom floor tiles. It is a nice metaphor of the relationship between body and architecture.
Film_Pre-shower
This is the first film I made trying to capture my personal movements, actions and routines when preparing to get in the shower. I have been playing around with camera angles, as you can see, and have covered part of the camera lens. The visual image you can see as the viewer is myself reflected in the bathroom's floor tiles. I think it's quite beautiful reflected - remaining ambiguous or foreign to the viewer, yet familiar in terms of sound perhaps.
