Faux Meat (in progress)

~ 9m | Experimental | No Dialogue

Faux Meat, funded by the North Carolina Arts Council, follows two male performers in a forest as they engage in ritualistic actions with faux plants, natural landscapes and their bodies. Through symbolic gestures such as trimming, cleaning, and planting the artificial flora, the film explores themes of artificiality, queer existence, and the tension between organic and synthetic life.
