POOL-ING

An examination of the relationship between movement and stillness- I set out to create something that is both fluid and static. I am interested in the impossibility of stillness within movement. Influenced by swimming in pools, ponds , floating on bodies of salt water and laying in bathwater. This work translates from paper to silk and to moving image with aim to capture the physicality of my body in, on and under water. 

"Looking at the cloth, I want to dive into its watery surface....I want to drown in it.... it reminds me of Mallais painting of Ophelia,  not to sound melancholic  (ha ha) "

Richard Scott, Poet
