Attraction (2014)
Images from various fairground scenes function as a metaphor for the filmmaker’s own attraction to analogue processes. Sound created from a leather skirt, 8mm, and 16mm projectors, and an old steel piano.

Peach (2013)
"A deeply personal film about my complex feelings about my boyfriend’s daughter Jojo, who is synaesthetic. Synaesthesia is an experience of cross-modal sensuality – of ‘seeing green’ or ‘tasting pink’, hearing colours or feeling smells as shapes. I think everyone is latently synaesthetic, and that certain ways of making cinema might be able to trigger the experience. Peach combines artisanal Super 8 filmmaking with complex emotions in an attempt to create ‘Cinesthetic Synaema’. The film’s title comes from a combination of things – the peachy colour of the film which is caused by the way it was made, Jojo’s different experiences of peach as a colour, and an affectionate name my mum gave me as a kid." — M.J.

Salt (2013)
"A film in my ‘Alchemy’ series. A vision of women enjoying the sea in Saltburn in North Yorkshire becomes a celebration of the material nature of film. The silver salts in film that react to light also react to the metallic salts in film toners, and a multi-coloured seascape emerges from the salt of the sea. Filmed on a part of the beach that was once notorious for shipwrecks, Salt is a love letter to film and to the churning, crashing, passionate sea." — M.J.

Foss (2013)
"A short piece I made in Malham in springtime. Malham is in the Yorkshire Dales, and is a place of dramatic natural beauty that is defined, for me at least, by the waters that run through it; those same waters that formed it slowly but surely over thousands upon thousands of years. ‘Foss’ is Yorkshire-speak (from Old Norse) for ‘Falls’. There’s even one waterfall there that has bored a hole right through the very centre of a huge rock. My film is a personal response to this place, a simple Super 8 work edited entirely in camera. I offer it up to the goddesses and gods of the Yorkshire Dales. Yes, I suppose I do worship at their feet, because Malham is the kind of church I go to." — M.J.

Maritime (end of the line) (2014)
A short Super 8 piece exploring whaling and aggression at sea. The closing shot is of a 'mermaid' made by sailors and passed off as a real creature. Filmed at Hull Maritime Museum, UK.

Bad Blood (2013)
"A Brutalist film-poem about the nature of a family tree and the macabre ancestral tales that work their way into your identity, whether you like it or not. A collaborative work that blends the poetry of Adelle Stripe, the music of C.A.R., and my hand-processed Super 8 imagery." — M.J.
