DESCRIPTION
-
In this series of performances I attempt to enact the physical representation of an internal transformation. Projecting an image of myself onto the canvas, I ceremoniously interpret an inner psychic change onto the canvas. Using layering processes and symbolic materials the figure build up and transform. I believe that performance allows me to be more present in the process, which is mostly unplanned. I begin by laying the materials out on the studio floor, before meditating and beginning the transformation. This way, I am able to fully engage in the process and go through the internal change as I am doing the performance. What is left is an impression containing the moment of transformation.
