One Big Eye (2025)

One Big Eye’ is a hand-processed 16mm film shot at Pando, an ancient aspen grove that extends across 106 acres in south-central Utah. Seemingly 47,000 individual trees, it is unified by a single, immense root system, making it a ‘forest of one.’ Believed to be between 16,000 and 80,000 years old, Pando is the largest and heaviest known organism on land. Pando's invisible root system is a guiding metaphor that emphasizes the interconnectedness between humans and non-human beings, as well as the notion of Oneness described by many spiritual traditions.
