endless body , 2023-2024

endless body explores the interconnection and intelligence of the life systems of which we are part. Informed by submerged, somatic, glacial, riverine, and underground places, these works on paper span microscopic and expansive scales, from bone marrow to fungi and river networks. Silt, breastmilk, bitumen, soil, glacial till; these materials are carried, produced and influenced by water. This work is informed by scholar Astrida Neimanis’s posthuman feminist theory exploring an expanded understanding of bodies of water, human and more-than-human, as porous and enmeshed. The drawings hang off the wall and can be experienced from both sides. More information on material origins, watersheds and territories can be found here.
