Spite Your Face

2017, 37 minutes

Spite Your Face is a dark Venetian fairytale presented as a large-scale portrait projection at the altar of the deconsecrated church, Chiesa di Santa Caterina, Cannaregio, Venice.

Referencing the Italian folk-tale the film is a tale across two worlds - with a bright, glittering and ordered upper world, and a warped, dirty, impoverished lower world - where the lure of wealth, power and adoration entices a destitute young boy into the shimmering riches of the kingdom above.
