A woman’s eating disorder plays out as a silent battle between her inner angel and devil—both trapped in a malfunctioning call centre inside her mind.

The Call Centre (2018) is a silent 16mm short that stages an eating disorder as an inner moral tug-of-war between a good angel and bad devil. In this case, recast as clashing customer service agents inside a call centre of the mind.

All three roles performed by the artist embody the psychic infrastructure of control, indulgence, and anxiety, turning the familiar morality-play trope into a dysfunctional corporate system. Rather than whispering on shoulders, these figures argue across each other, snatching the signals and guilting their desires through the phone.
