These narrative explorations question the gap between what is seen and what is heard.

"Gray Hairs" is a close-up study of Man Ray as he sleeps. Focusing on the dog's fur, a seemingly simple and humorous portrait evolves into an elegantly composed study of surface tension that recalls Wegman's photographic renderings of Man Ray.
