The film explores the algorithmic gaze in relation to power and control by appropriating surveillance tools used by the powers-that-be. Via the far-infrared lens, 111 subjects randomly encountered in public spaces were covertly indexed by measuring their temperature, thus breaching the body’s boundary, capturing their thermal photograph, and logging surveillance data about each subject, including 3-word-coded geolocations

Her work has been shown internationally, including the UK, Italy, Germany, Brazil, and South Korea
