When I think of the word dérive, maps and pathways come to mind. The first week I moved to Paris I would notice these lines in the sky, so I decided to film them. Whilst thinking of an idea for my Dérive project, I found myself going back to these videos I took and wanted to use it as a source. These lines in the sky are called chemtrails, I feel that the pace they move in is very soothing and reminds me of time passing by during a journey. From this, I decided to film electricity wires when I was on the train – the pace was way faster compared to the chemtrails.
