It’s set in my own personal art gallery and I get to show you all my treasures and wares. If anyone brings a fountain pen in with them I swear to GOD I will lose it, if the ink gets on any of my knick-knacks and compromises their integrity I will go crazy.
During the Cultural Revolution, armed clashes between rival "rebel" factions in Chongqing were the most severe in the entire country.

Alessandra and Elisa are fifteen, bound by an intense connection that shifts between closeness, desire, and subtle jealousy. Elisa is about to move abroad, and the looming distance charges every gesture with new weight. They tease, provoke, and cling to each other, as if holding on and pushing away were the same thing. What they can’t express surfaces in silences, in glances, in the fragile balance between them. Over the course of a long afternoon, following the path of a river, they drift along the edges of their world: boys who bully, men who blur boundaries, glimpses of an adult world they observe without fully understanding. In that uncertain space - shaped by fear, confusion, and desire - something cracks. An extreme act begins to take shape, driven by something deep, unspoken, and unresolved.

The left side of her body, as well as her vision, stopped functioning. Miraculously, she managed to survive. After several back-and-forth visits, she received a one-in-a-million diagnosis: Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome.

All I Ever Wanted follows a character moving through fragments of digital life—messages, recordings, mediated experiences—in search of someone who feels both intensely real and just out of reach. As the pursuit deepens, language begins to slip into something mercurial. What begins as a search gradually unfolds into a world of warped digital dreams and material fictions, where what is real becomes a negated question.
In this work, the artists assert the fatal link between genocide and ecocide, exposing the colonial logic of 'taming', inherent in European intervention. Video footage and field recordings of the Birrarung are layered with shredded snippets of a score composed in the 1800s, inspired by the river. By contrast, the soundscape features the voice of Jasper Cohen-Hunter, who recounts the Creation Story of the Birrarung as told by Beruk (William Barak, 1823-1903), the Ngurungaeta (leader) of the Wurundjeri-balluk.
