Contained Ed. 1 of 3

This artwork is from the series 'Remember'. In this series I examine the role of the body as historian of our personal experience and identity. What the mind forgets the body remembers. The body in this photograph is trying to hold itself together, contained and protected. The arm coming from within is ambiguous as to whether it comes from this figure or from someone else intertwined.
This is a digitally collaged and manipulated photograph taken within the studio and printed as a giclee print on archival paper.
It is available in a range of sizes upon request.
