Self Portraits:
Breath Self
110 works on paper that draw on the technique of analytical breath release. The held breath allows the mind to survey the body and identify blocks which are then purged via the outward breath. This control and release oscillates between gentle and forceful at the hiatus of the process.
The images are produced from a roll of lined, aged paper that has been in the artist's studio for many years. This paper is as old as the life that is being detoxified.
This is a discovery of the power of breath and the understanding that it was never imagined.
