Filmed at John F. Kennedy Airport, Approach captures passengers arriving from long-haul flights, seeking contact with someone familiar. Shot on camcorders with telephoto lenses and slowed down, the footage emphasizes the moment of transition experienced by each subject as they arrive. The installation consists of four screens, each displaying the same image with a one-second delay, creating a cascading effect.


Four airport monitors suspended in custom enclosures with ceiling mounts. 09:00 min., loop.
