Shapeshifter, video installation, Solo exhibition at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center
November 17, 2022 - January 8, 2023
Using myself as the only performer, this video piece was created by filming slow movements in the reflection of water in a tunnel, and without any digital effects. With the magical occurrence of multiple limbs appearing in the reflection, the piece is a meditation on the fluid capacities of our bodies and selves; a witnessing of the transformation of a singular body into a multiplicity of forms and identities. Continually dissolving and re-forming the boundaries of the self, water is the transforming element— a primordial soup or womb for the birthing of a multi-dimensional body.
