PHOTOGRAPHY
REMEMBERING THE BODY
This project appropriates images taken by Jim Coleman from the Hampshire DIV III Concert. The pictures are re-photographed through screens breaking down fact and reality. The dance that is represented here is Remembering the Body, choreographed by Rikkia Pereira. Thread stitches points of initiation highlighting the kinesthetic sensation of the body in space. Fingerprints are left. Working within several mediums, the goal of this work is to re-enter an embodied experience through shedding the logical. This is a negotiation between the polarities of dance and photography and the messiness of the in-between.

COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY
These self-portraits link the ephemeral to the corporeal, trying to capture someone and something that is trying to evade singularity. Land and body, movement and mist seek to escape into one another. This collection of photographs is a first attempt to question the complex relationship between my body, nature and food.

AND SHE FITS WITHIN YOU
A claustrophobic camouflage
That wears her in the folds of her floral dress
She lives in the bound absurdity of symmetry
Existing in fissures of a home
As silent as her
She is an overgrown forgetting
Misplaced and misused
A domestic delusion
Hung up to dry
And never retrieved
Framed by the violence of the earth
She is a body without words
In hiding she is revealed
Cut down
A gazeless girl
Consumed
She Is where she should not
Unraveling into innocence
Her wounds hold her
Now tethered to the softness of soil
She is blind freedom
She fits within the earth
She fits within you
