Where The Body Rests
Where the Body Rests is an ongoing body of work that considers the body as a site of memory, offering, and transformation.
About
Where the Body Rests is an ongoing body of work that treats the body as both archive and site—holding memory, offering, and transformation.
The project unfolds through the collection of personal materials—hair, garments, paintings, and other objects—each carrying its own history, worn, held, or carried.
Visitors may contribute their own materials, allowing them to enter a process of release.
Through acts of cutting, burning, and reworking, these materials are transformed.
What remains is not preservation, but translation.
Residue becomes structure. Ash becomes pigment.
Fragments are woven into new forms.
The work resists fixed authorship. It is built through participation, where individual histories are folded into a shared language of material and gesture.
Human Hair and found wood
Work in Development
-
A recurring gathering where canvases are cut, reconfigured, and rebuilt.
An act of rupture and reconstruction—nothing is discarded, only transformed. -
A material-based project centered on grief, offering, and transformation.
Clothing, paintings, and personal objects are contributed and reconstituted—at times reduced to ash and remade into pigment. -
A sculptural project using human hair as a primary material.
Hair is gathered, bundled, and constructed into forms that hold weight—tracing where the body settles, pauses, and releases.
