A Ramble in Serralves Park (2015)

"On visiting the gardens at Serralves Contemporary Art Museum in Porto, Portugal, I found myself completely and utterly sexually turned on. It was a sunny afternoon, and there weren’t many people in the park at all. My desire consumed me, and I had a strong impulse to retreat to the overgrowth and phone my lover, and to pleasure myself until I came. But something in me pushed me to use this libidinous drive to make a film, and see if I could channel it and make something creative from the desire, rather than simply satisfy a powerful craving. The result is this film." — M.J.
