Walrus TV: Swoon (Video)

"I've always really had the sense of the way that people store things inside their bodies and the way that everything you've ever seen or ever done is a part of you.and I felt like in a way if I could somehow draw that.or make an x-ray - maybe it was just your experiences that day or maybe it's just what you walked past that day, or maybe it's a deeper story that's.somewhere in there for the telling."
