-
This work explores the poetic and precarious encounters between body and earth.
-
It entangles the self with roots, rust, soil, seeds, sticks and the physical disintegration and decomposition of materiality over time.
-
The body and corresponding movements are shaped and scored by the environment.
-
This process seeks to blur the line between forms and unravel the tensions, dichotomies, and transitory nature of terrestrial relationships.
-
It is a laborious, cyclical on-the-point-of-collapse-sculpture and performance.
-
It shape-shifts and drifts between maintenance and disassemblage.

affixed to skin
affixed to belief
a thorn is just a modified stem
becoming sharp
in order to survive being affixed to everything.

instinct
compiles itself
tunneled in the ground
and sky
it migrates
sleeps
shuffles
and turns
unlabeled
certainty
somewhere
where
I would like to be .
