Mimesis is an obsessive art project I’ve worked on for 3 years, building models and sets, traveling around Western US states including my home state of Montana with a truck full of props as well as creating makeshift sets at home. Nothing in the film is digital, all the visuals are analog, created using miniatures, home-made machines, smoke and mirrors. Plato and Aristotle saw in mimesis the representation of nature. I wanted to depict other beings harnessing these forces to create a super nature while no one seems to notice.
