Abstract
A Man is forced to escape his own mind through a window. Potter's Mirror examines the minds fragility, the rituals of life and death and experiments with unusual techniques such as animated taxidermy to question the nature of subjectivity, being human and the post-human. The themes of the film also explore the uncanny, the stranger within, a stranger that can be amplified by the loss of the mind through mental deterioration. Overall, however the film is predominantly an expression of loss, the loss of my own father to dementia as well as the broader human experience of grief.
