Overexposed

An investigation into the wreckage of a B29 Flying Fortress which crashed on remote moorland at Bleaklow, in the Peak District. Drawing influence from the deep-mapping strategies of Michael Shanks and Clifford McLucas, this project combines new and archival footage with creative responses to produce a hybrid of documentary and experimental filmmaking. Several narratives of the location are coalesced, including the aircraft's former role as a photographic reconnaissance plane for nuclear tests on Bikini Atoll, the event of the crash and the artist's journey of discovery.
