Belladonna Museum

“Belladonna Museum” is a short film that portrays a personal experience of a transgender woman in a tragic love relationship: it is a visual poetry that reinterprets iconic paintings from surrealism and post-impressionism to address themes such as emotional dependence, loneliness, objectification, the attachment and the abuse both emotional and physical.

She Dreams When She Bleeds

This short film portrays the essence of the feminine realm, weaving a tapestry of symbolism inspired by the evocative poetry found within Nikki Tajiri's book "She Dreams When She Bleeds." Known for her artful exploration of "Period Poetry," a term that encapsulates works that gracefully utilize the concept of menstruation as a poignant anchor for expressing themes and emotions intertwined with femininity—emotions ranging from solitude to the profound bonds of unity.
