Big Catch is a video of the artist showing off her big catch. An Arctic Char is bathed, sewn back together, and presented in a bathroom.

When I catch a big fish I show it off. What else could happen when you pull something out of the murk? Oceans are places of deep hiding, of opaqueness and myopic perceptions. Often, my bathtub is not. There's nothing worse than fake intimacy, so I try to keep that in mind too.
