A composition that began out of a process of first asking: what did Orpheus see when he turned around? From the cycle of life between two legs in a birthing position, to a woman’s head as a house releasing a stream into a river – Orphic Phantasm unravels knots between myth and unconscious fantasy. Deconstructed into parts, the scene offers a glimpse into certain anxious messages caught up in our relationship with “where we come from” and “where we seem to find ourselves constantly trying to return to.” The scene was entirely designed in 3D, using several light passes, and a camera split diopter filter.
