digital image collages on fabric, resin

This series borrows its name from a sentence in Donna Haraway's "A Cyborg Manifesto" which considers the crises and possibilities of post-humanism. What new geometries, fluidities, and simultaneities of identity emerge in this fractured, slippery new world? These candy-like, crumpled, and floating wall works lend new materiality to digital images produced through a rigorous misuse of face-swapping apps. The artist's own face becomes unhinged from its bodily origin and is set adrift to mix and mutate with other versions of itself. Settled within the hardened fabric surfaces, they become fixed and yet remain connected to an elsewhere, a gesture towards something not quite graspable, something after, but something other than an ending.

“In the fraying of identities and in the reflexive strategies for constructing them, the possibility opens up for weaving something other than a shroud for the day after the apocalypse that so prophetically ends salvation history.”
