Working with contemporary artist Chiharu Shiota on the ICA Boston’s Watershed Exhibit was an experience defined by creativity, introspection, and gratitude. Capturing and editing this project was more than just another filmmaking task—it was a chance to step into the meditative realm Shiota creates, threading together human connection and memory with an elegance that few artists possess.

I am thrilled to share with you an extraordinary journey I embarked on recently. It was a voyage into the heart of a mesmerizing art exhibit, 'Mariposa Relámpago' by Guadalupe Maravilla, currently on display at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston and curated by Ruth Erickson. As the creator, alongside Kris Wilton, of the introduction video for this exhibit, I had the unique opportunity to delve deep into the essence of Maravilla's work and bring it to life through the lens of my camera.
