Body of Water

The pleasure of a body that adopts the logic of water rather than resisting it.

Some works contain nudity and close studies of the human body.

Artist reflection

Body of Water first emerged as an extension of My Body Is the Land I’m From. I entered the water still thinking about the body and landscape as parts of the same living system.

Once I began working in water, the terms of the work changed. Water stopped functioning as setting and became a condition the body had to enter: permeability, movement, buoyancy, exchange, surrender, response. There is pleasure in that surrender for me—not as display, but in the bodily experience of no longer resisting every force acting on me.
