SUBJECT OBJECT
Visual Artist Maggie Kelly and I found common ground in our
interest of exploring the human ‘body’ as a material object and so
began playing with the passive body in space. Our collaborative
exploration naturally surfaced in the form of performance and
photography, through which we gradually shift to the use of daily
objects as a substitute to the human body. By using objects we
begin exploring the word ‘body’ in a wider context in order to lose
any associations connected to the passive body, such as the weight
of death. Ironically in doing so, this weight is regained, exposing
our inescapable attachment to death, bringing us full circle.
