Artist Statement
Often dealing with issues of identity, migration and displacement and questioning my purpose as an artist in the wider and fast moving 21st century world, I seek to observe and represent all realms of life including the dysfunctional nature of the world we live in. Issues of rejection or marginalisation, both personal and societal will be raised as well as commentaries on society and humanity as reflective or deflective of their philosophical thought.
“Her ongoing interests include: the variable membrane between fiction and real world; political geographies and psychological dislocation in the everyday; speculative landscapes and architectural narratives; science fiction genres and future imaginaries; the legacy of U.S. social change movements in a shifting global economy; paradox and the political unconscious; desire, popular culture, feminist and queer theory; art as historical artifact, the aesthetics of time, and differing systems of cataloguing history.”
An actual artist’s statement, seen last year.
oooh. I like that one. wish i’d found it :)
Anyway, if you’re a photographer, you have to include in your Statement a lot of pretentious blather about “searching for the light.” The transcendent all-encompassing light blah blah blah.
