'The Landscape' explores a modern disconnection to the environment and the process of image-making in a selfie age. My own body (in character) and the landscape fight for the spotlight through several playful failed attempts to capture both concurrently. My art contends with perception dissonance resulting from widespread information technology, namely surveillance cameras, drones, social media, ‘smart’ phones, and facial recognition software. I use an array of digital mediums to explore how technology has not only enhanced “visibility” but also fostered the invisible nature of worlds within our own, and how high-resolution surveillance has distorted our collective focus on urban and ecological environs. Though seemingly digitally fabricated, my images are entirely created in camera and through sets. I use Photoshop only to combine the “characters” in these worlds, most of which I perform.
The EVERY WOMAN BIENNIAL is a celebration of: uplifting women, non-binary artists, creating opportunities, encouragement, connection, community, inspiration and love. Bringing together established artists alongside hundreds of emerging artists, some showing for the first time. The Biennial launched in NYC in 2014 by founder C. Finley, originally under the name, The Whitney Houston Biennial, as a way to provide a platform and exposure for more female artists.
