“In my early twenties I found out about Tuvan throat singing and that Tuvan is one of my ancestral languages. When I found out that this language was endangered I wanted to drop everything and dedicate my time to going deeper into learning more about my roots. That desire became a filmmaking journey across grasslands and islands, and a pilgrimage for spiritual connection with music. My goals are to create art that comes from the deepest part of my heart, unlearning the expectations on musicians, AMAB people, BIPOC folk, or anyone else by capitalism. I am in the process of grieving the artist I once believed I had to be —chasing goals that were not truly my own. I’m brimming with ideas as to what I genuinely want to say and create, focusing on what feels true to me as a brown, nonbinary, queer artist.”
