TIM LOVES
Ascension by Bill Viola
Bill Viola has been a longstanding influence on my practice, particularly in the way he expands video into something deeply immersive and contemplative. His work moves beyond the medium itself, engaging with life, death, consciousness, and spirituality in a way that feels both intimate and universal.
A Hunter by Daido Moriyama
Hunter by Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama remains a defining reference. I had the opportunity to meet Moriyama in Amsterdam during an exhibition while I was living there. His work is marked by a stark, unapologetic rawness that has come to define his practice. That intensity and immediacy continue to inform and resonate within my own practice.
Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto
Their collaboration on the score for The Revenant has been a longstanding point of reference, informing the development of multi-channel film installations in dialogue with sound design. The work holds a precise tension between minimalism and emotional depth, creating a sense of atmosphere that is both restrained and immersive.
Il Buco Alimentari & Vineria
Il Buco Alimentari & Vineria in New York has been my go to Italian Restaurant whenever I'm in New York weather with friends or for production meetings. I have spent many a night over fine reds and food talking the night away about film and photography with a very dear friend of mine and fellow visual artist.
