私の作品は、写真や映像、インスタレーション、パフォーマンスを用いて、対人関係やグローバルな問題を探求する。そして、土地の変化、地理、社会、心理的プロセスに興味を持っている。旅するアーティストとして、取り巻く状況が自身の新しい側面を表すと同時に、社会と環境に関する疑問を投げかける。写真と映像の作品は一部がステージングされており、存在を部分的に記録する。私の映像作品の多くは写真に関連し、カメラは動かず、静的なフレームを使う。通常、そのフレームでは小さな出来事が起こり、物語の代わりに、繰り返しの行動やポーズ、動作、ジェスチャーを作る。ダンサー、そしてヨガ講師として、自分の体を使い、カメラの前でパフォーマンスすることもある。私にとっての土地の意味が私自分の体を通り抜けて、私のキャラクターは、作品や物理的空間、風景、状況の中で活発になる。いくつかの作品では、自身や他の人をステージングして、シンプルなジェスチャーを使い、ユーモアのある発想を伝える。その他には、風景を使ってデザインすることを好んでいる。
In my art I use photography, video, installation and performance, in order to explore global and interpersonal issues. I’m interested in land changes, geographic, social and psychological processes. As a traveling artist, the physical space allows me to express new aspects of myself, while also talking about questions of society and environment.
My photography and video works are partially staged partly documenting the existing. Most of my videos relate to photography, and are built as static frames, with no camera movements. In these frames there is usually a minor happening, and instead of a narrative, I create repetitive actions, poses, movements and gestures.
As a dancer and yoga teacher, I sometimes use my own body to perform in front of the camera. My definition of the geographical place passes through my own body, and my character becomes active in my works, present in the physical space, in the landscape, and in the situation. I like how the personal situation integrates into global ideas. In some works I stage myself & others, using simple gestures to manifest humorist ideas, and in other works I like to orchestrate the landscape.
