Down a Stream

Down a Stream explores the idea of healing from trauma through reenactments of mind-body interventions. Stemming from my own exploratory participation in these therapies, I became fascinated with the idea of healing and the role of performance and belief in the process. The photographs feature a mix of mysterious interiors in conjunction with human interactions. A world made of familiar spaces and gestures is transformed into strange encounters with themes of visual entrapment and an undercurrent of disquietude. Tense muscles, bodies lifting other bodies and awkward embraces create an enigmatic experience with no comfortable resolution just as the healing process is unsettling and perhaps never fully complete.
