I am interested in looking at the tensions between the tangible and the abstract through the exploration of nostalgia and memory. A lot of what I do is through investigations of process, tactility, and movement. I photograph to understand the concrete aspects of my experiences in relation to the intangible traces of my memories.
Hi Samantha,
ReplyDeleteTaking this and the fact that you engage in spoken word into account, I would strongly recommend spending some time with Sharon Hayes' work.
Her piece "Parole," she joins the processes of making work with spoken word. Other projects such as "In the Near Future" focus on elements of nostalgia through reenactment.
