Illusory Kino-Pravda: Illusory Kino-Pravda is a multi-channel, 6 video installation that deconstructs notions of "film-truth" through the artistic fusion of documented everyday experiences, filmed tutorials, and pre-recorded audio art lessons intertwined with imagined landscapes, mythic characters, and dreamlike episodes. Although the Kino-Pravda newsreel series of the 1920s avoided highly subjective themes concerned with beauty, creative entertainment, or art, the revised Illusory Kino- Pravda deliberately highlights the aforementioned as a commentary and examination of ideas pertaining to truth, objectivity, and cinematic veracity in the contemporary realm. The piece, when installed in a gallery, utilizes 6 separate displays, videos looping perpetually in unison contributing to a full, reverie-mimicking, immersive experience.
