Still Life with Time
Saturday, 14 June, 2025

Surprise! Welcome back The Magic Hour. The universe decided that Tess and I would meet this year- and it was a fitting alignment being that we both seem to think alot about our relationship to time. In this wild world of connection, it really moved me that somehow she found the Dreamcast at just the right moment-when I was ready to allow for more “letting things happen” and relinquishing control. This kind of magic encounter is what the Dreamcast is all about.Tess is a filmmaker/animator/artist who has lived all around the world and is currently creating and showing work in Rotterdam. She joined me on the dreamcast to talk about her life and artwork. We delve into why we care about time, about a sense of place, about animation and its ability to slow down stories and make us remember to not forget.Please find below stills from her projects, links to her films, and where she will be showing her work in the upcoming months. Please share, connect and support her so she can continue to create her amazing work. Please start here at her website!Feel free to share thoughts and ideas below, and if you ever feel inspired to share you story with me around the fire, let me know.Until next time,PixieLinks to Tess’ films:Currently only one film is publicly available: 'Still Life with Woman, Tea and Letter'The trailer to '1976: Search for Life' is here: This one will be online next summer.The trailer to 'How Now, House?' is here: Her work will be showing At the Sheffield Doc Fest Jun 21st and 22nd!
