EXPERIMENTAL SHORT FILM
Les aigües que esculpeixen el foc (The Waters That Sculpt Fire) – On a beach, Les aigües que esculpeixen el foc follows an introspective and sensory journey where the body, upon coming into contact with the sea, becomes a portal. The images reveal an inner fissure, an emotional portrait made of glass fragments: remnants of bottles thrown into the sea by humans, which the waves and sand return smoothed and polished over time. This natural process functions as a metaphor for emotional transformation and the possibility of healing.
Using sea glass as both material and inspiration, miniature landscapes were constructed and filmed using microscopy and underwater recording techniques. The sea acts as a metamorphic force and the beach as a sacred space where matter, the body, and nature engage in a dialogue within a cycle of erosion and rebirth.
