Continuum speaks to the possibilities and nuance of visual matter to provide new perspectives on the contested and evolving discourse on female bodies. The work enmeshes red and blue magnified impressions of the female breast that reveal the signature topology of cross-strata lines and visible skin-print unique to the breast. The layering of primary colours and space around the form seek to shift fixed conceptions of the female body, that prescribe how the female body should perform, to conceptions that embrace bodies and being in the world as changeable and contestable.
I'm a Sydney based artist who lives and works on unceded Gadigal land interested in the connections and tensions between people and place and language and history. Projects utilise images, objects, and installation, primarily in print, photography and drawing with a focus on exploring text, form, colour and space.
