Synopsis

Young police investigator Kim has been assigned to her first station. She thought that criminals and suspects were her biggest concerns but soon realizes there are other things she has to protect herself against.


Artist's Statement/Inquiry

At this stage, the work is ready for the following:

  • Collaboration with actors and director so that Latch can be experienced and viewed by an audience, allowing further development through feedback.
  • An invitation to designers, producers and other investors to help Latch reach its full presentation. In light of recent climate, I believe there is potential and merit in the work to explore unconventional styles of staging, be it digital, multimedia, movement or mixed reality.
