installations > Earth Body, 2014

The human body and the natural environment—the connection between the two doesn’t come readily to mind when I am dwelling in a city, living in a way that is made possible by electricity, gasoline, zeroes and ones.

What if I consider the body as a part of the landscape—part of the ecosystem—absorbing, connecting with, and impacting what is around it?

Earth Body explores this idea through the juxtaposition of disparate images, layering, and translucence.
