Threads-Purple/Father - Fashion Film Director
Threads-Purple/Father is part of a triptych short inspired by the poem Threads written by Echo Collins-Egan that describes the intricate nature and complexity of relationships with the three prominent figures in her life father, mother, lover and the intimate connections she weaves with each of them. The choices of threads vary in colour and thickness they unravel, fray, knot and tangle depending on the nature of the relationship they represent.

Dad's Is Purple
Gossamer, subtle, uncomfortably knotted, beautiful.
A thread from Kilburn to wherever I may be.
I'm scared of pulling on that one.
These threads, they stretch
from heart string to heart string.
Pulling and dancing and making this, my world,
into an intricately woven circle.
Every human,
New ones,
breaking ones.
Death incapable of unsowing, destroying
making them ghostly connections
to our pasts.
