My art is fully intertwined within my life (they are mirrors of one another); and, as life moves fluidly like a stream of running water, my art has to as well. If occasion calls where it needs to be listed under the specific titling of a project, I can cluster together these specific visualizations. But, my art and my project are always open to further expansion and transitioning.
And so, at the moment, I am exploring the body- my body or bodies I am familiar with- and its interactions with nature/natural elements as a form of intimate healing and transformation. A transformative process drawing inwards. This inwardness has drawn me into a solitude that draws in the whole universe. I seek this solitude and I only have this solitude. To speak precisely of my photography: Most of the time I only have myself as a model, so I use myself; I trust and know myself enough to visualize my inward feelings; I go to nature where I feel energy, freedom, power, and harmony in my reality; I disappear within my surroundings to try to lose my self-importance or to perform, ritualistically and privately; I become a shadow through-in and through-out; me, or a small selection of someone or something else.
This is my narrative between the body and the land. My narrative between the body and memory. My narrative of inwardness, solitude, and transformation. I give this story to the Earth.
