Artist statement
As bodies, we are always physically occupying space, and we are further extended (spatially and conceptually) through our use of objects. This increasingly complex engagement with our environments highlights the ambiguity of any boundaries a human body might have. The interaction between bodies, tools and technologies forms the focus of my work, and through video and photography I try to examine their boundaries. I intend to investigate the traces of human involvement and physical struggles, and through recorded temporal and spatial experiments, the results can often be experienced as durational mark-making.
