Echoes of Existence

A film installation coming to Toronto in 2026

Echoes of Existence: The House of Synthetic Truths is a non-linear, multi-channel film installation that exposes our world of documentation and notions of self determination.

Existing in a continuous cycle of what we digest, process and release back into the world, visitors to the installation will piece together their own personalized narrative for an experience that lies somewhere between theatre, film and visual art.
