Follow up work; Ecotone-A residency at Winchester School of Art- LOD2-Chapel Arts Studios-

Research work/performance- Ecotone-



Ecotone; Defined by Astrida Neimanis (Hydrofeminism..., 2012) as a site of tension between two ecosystems, which also becomes home to new forms of life.

Encounters between Water- Light-Body-Concrete-Time-

Cyanotype









Where the body becomes a site of resistance between


Warm Sunlight, Brutal Concrete, Flowing Water 
and Passing Life.


Water Inside, Outside


My skin recording change as it happens,


A breathing membrane forms around the body, making,


Making sense


Sensing meaning


A fluid connection.
