Exiles of the Shattered Star presents a beautiful countryside showered with what appear to be remnants of another place. Inhabiting a place between fantasy and reality, Exiles of the Shattered Star evokes trepidation and fascination in equal measures. Exiles of the Shattered Star was recently included as part of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden's exhibition The Cinema Effect: Illusion, Reality and the Moving Image and the Sundance Film Festival's New Frontiers exhibition alongside Twilight Avenger and Wagons Roll.
