I am an artist with a background in photography, and I make images and performances that examine interiority, intimacy and negotiation while questioning the institution of femininity. My practice uses the blurring of subject, author, object and person to explore multiple subjectivities within each of us, pointing to a layered and often paradoxical sense of self. My practice is an endless loop of image → performance where photography and performance are simultaneously the medium and the process. 

My work interrogates the ways one is often required to curate, build and practice themself in order to traverse various aspects of life. I question how we observe and record the world and regurgitate what is consumed into a performed self. A perennial game of telephone. Traditional power roles of maker and muse are challenged in my work as we toggle between surrender and subversion: through collaboration and trust, the subject and photographer can simultaneously be both author and the object of gaze. In many of my photographs, the subject and I share authorship, rights and control of the picture made by interchangeably holding the camera or release cable. This creates a slipping in and out of all roles, allowing the overlaps to guide the process and ultimately, the produced image. My process is fueled by a longing for understanding and connection. I’m intrigued by the ways we can see ourselves in one another - a shared gaze mirroring at least one intersection of experience or selfhood.
