My body responds to what I feel, and what I see, in my socio-political time and place.
The Archive Performance Series is a photograph series, that conveys my isolation, and hopelessness, in the unsettling presence which surrounded me. The blurry figures, and the ghostly presence, bring the claustrophobia and unsettlement of my body into the work, which is presented in two ways. Papers echo the movement of the body and carpet in the space, and the dissolving figures in the animated photos bring the body’s disappearance into the work.
