In this series of work, the fluid motion of water is stilled by the camera lens and overlaid with the written word.
My use of text arises from an internal dialogue I have with water. What would water share with me if given the agency of a voice? What memory and stories does it hold? How can it help deepen my relationship with the world, outside of my own human perspective?
These works are available separately, numbered edition of six, variable sizes, dye sublimation prints on brushed Aluminium.
we are all bodies of water
we held you in the womb
who holds dominion
rewonder
holy water
your boundless open sea inside
you chart our location you pen our lore
through the eyes of an octopus
you suck me into your coma
curious mercurial moments
slow down
the lapping tides kiss goodnight
on reflection
you hold a fountain inside
what is the cost of living
you’ll never contain me in such a small pond
disturb your calm
right as rain
your rivers our veins
trans form
dissolve into the mothering
dream another ocean dream
every storm more beautiful
out of the blue
bestow buoyancy
river reverence
coral sea requiem
we bleed glaciers
something much greater
dissolve your self
manmade natural disaster
share holder
sea change
care taker
patterns of chance and inevitability
we are you you are us
we are them they are us
