关于此艺术家

My work explores themes of quest, identity and transcendence through maps of physical and felt experience, primarily within an urban environment. I’m intrigued by others’ routines, recollections and rituals as I chart their journeys toward nourishment, love, bonding and memory over time.

Often along the way I happen upon my own personal path, discovering the cusps that unify our lives in their rich complexities and quirks. Here, at the edge of connection, I seek to touch people visually and emotionally.

The materials I use to get there depend on what’s available at the moment and on what I collect or plan. Paper, glass, charcoal, wax, fabric, metal wire, thread, human milk and human hair (my own or a participant’s) mesh to yield the textures, layers and measurements that form the spine of my work. The result is a body of conceptual documents that use text, sound, cartography, video and organic stuff to depict precise landscapes of completed odysseys and personal histories.

I’m drawn to both the spiritual and the mundane; I like to tease out the transformation from one to another, and back again.

My installations and performances are delicate, intricate, multi-dimensional worlds that radiate ethereal movement, expressing both the cyclical and fragile nature of life and yet can also be unsettling and disturbing. They invite the viewer to become part of the narrative space, where drawings combine with video images recordings and text tells of longings that can be, and are, fulfilled.

Roadkills and Other Casualties

2006
video and performance

Roadkills and Other Casualties
At various locations throughout the city, and at different times of the year, (one morning for each season), I staged a performance. It consists of myself lying on the pavement. Sometimes very well dressed and sometimes dressed as if I am living on the street. Hiding in a car nearby, a cameraperson is filming people’s reactions to my lying down on the sidewalk. I have a hidden microphone so that the verbal interactions with pedestrians and the sound of the traffic are recorded as well. This is to be seen as an installation, running continuously with at least two screens, one showing the well-dressed person the other the person disguised as a homeless person. Total running time 1hour 25min 2006

Happy Birthday
Video still from the performance video HAPPY BIRTHDAY, 2005/2007, a single voice is layered to form a party of multiple voices.I crawls about, at first setting up a tablecloth on the floor in anticipation of the event. We don’t know if this is my first birthday celebration or my last. During the course of the party increasingly the anxiety builds up, realizing as I do that she is either happily alone or alarmingly left out. The expectation that others will arrive quickly dissipates as I, like a bad child, dabs at my cake, destroys it and eventually paints on top of the chocolate with cans of Williamsburg paint, left-over from my earlier years as a painter. Running time: 8:40.

The cup project

1996/1999

Between 1996-1999, I collected 128 cups from New York City’s homeless population. The installation also includes fifteen empty spaces for people who wouldn’t give up their cup when asked. Throughout the process of creating this work, I paid $1.00 for each donation, reversing the process of the traditional pan-handling agreement. At times, when I would tell a homeless person what the project was about, that it was for art, she would be asked to give $2.00. If a cup wasn’t given, she would give the person a dollar anyway. Throughout the project, I kept a journal, recording my travels and the stories she heard. Some homeless people refused to sell their cup because they were fearful I would cast a voodoo spell on them or they didn’t want to sell their “lucky cup.” The wall installation consists of paper, plastic and metal cups, filling a space that is approximately 152cm wide x 190cm high. The bottom of each cup has the name and date of birth of the participants in their own handwriting.

Maps of Displacement

2001/2006

Maps of Displacement
Maps of Displacement includes: Voices of Displacement, Universal, Journal of Displacement and the video Still Here. Voices of Displacement and Maps of Displacement are based on interviews I did with displaced New Yorkers after 9/11 when they lost their homes or had to temporarily move. A map charted the route of a journey taken between the time they left home to the time they were permitted to return home and was then sewn onto silk gauze scrims draped across the installation. The stories, told in multiple languages, are heard on speakers across the installation space, echoing the confusion and unknown quality of that day. Universal, created later in 2005, began by asking people who spoke different languages to select one or several sentences from the previous project, Participants would then speak these responses in their own language, further displacing the “displacement”. This process emphasized the fact that being displaced is a universal experience. I also kept a journal throughout the project, with notes and drawings. Maps of Displacement is the title of the entire project and was created between 2001 and 2006. The video, Still Here runs as a loop. From 2003-2006, the combined images were assembled as an installation along with images of water and earth. Images were layered and superimposed along with selected sounds that formed a series of stories related to the experience of 9/11.

I am terrified of loosing you
Room Installation that includes sounds, performance, video Clothes are, over time, thrown pell-mell on the white dance surface floor then outlined in red pen. Here and there, you will find a gathering of leaves, nail polish, old rusty nails, and wool. On one of the room corners, an old pair of jeans is stapled upside down to the wall. Drawings are connected with threads that move into the space to the other wall. A long sheet of white gauze is draping down from the ceiling, one corner dipping into a large container of black ink. During the performance, the artist wears a hand knitted green dress that is connected to a wire-weight attached to the wall. She gathers shaven hair dust and attempts to contain it within a sculptural vessel, made of very thin silver wire. The dust seeps through. The closing of the performance consists of the artist very slowly pouring ink onto the top of the gauze sheet, resulting in ink dripping/splashing all over the floor. When the artist exits the room, the dress, still anchored to the wall, is pulled off of her. In addition, there will be photographic images and projected video loops, shot during the initial in-studio installation preparation, present within the space of the performance. The floor material is later cut into various shapes, which will then become re-attached following a binding pattern reminiscent to that of corsets, the threading inconsistently laced, sometimes loose and other times tight, thus creating a tension.
