“I’m fascinated by how we experience and perceive different bodies of water. This exhibition looks to connect us emotionally and physically with these spaces of water, and looks at how we interact with water, with the vast open ocean and, in contrast, the confined constructed swimming pool. Both share similarities in the way we experience these spaces, but there are also huge differences in the intensity of our interaction with these spaces, our sense of freedom, joy, elation, exposure, fear, and possibility. There is an otherworldly experience immersed in water that no other environment offers to me, a visceral intensity of sensation where my imagination connects with my expanded and primordial self.”
