Artist's Statement

I rely on the indexical relationship objects have to image to contemplate the potential fugitive materiality of the photographic image and the body. This work is part of an ongoing interrogation of the relationship between content and vessel. In terms of semantics and recognition, the body and the photograph both suffer from and for the form; spirit it was what escapes that. The storytelling of hands represents the vernacular of escape that they traffic in; signifying as an act of loosing the spirit from the flesh and image from the photograph. The title of this show is scripture, a critique, a question, and an invitation to the viewer. It is an ask that they would engage with and consider the ontology of the images being indexed and their relationship to the vessels that carry them.
