The Torturer conveys a mundane, yet shamefully horrific moment. This is my KO genesis project, a collection of ten spoken-word poems about family, the self and death. The collection is called "A sense of belonging". As we are all finding our feet in this wonderful new world of the metaverse, I find it interesting to juxtapose those feelings with the intensity of our mundane existence IRL. I explain the inspiration for each poem towards the end of the film. Each work contains macro-filmmaking footage of 1/1 hand-painted watercolour covers and are voiced by a professional voice over artist (me :)). This collection will be followed up with a different token-release project that provides access to the e-book poetry anthology.
