Current
2021
In the video piece, Current, self-extension and process are emphasized as a piece of silicone with my own hair is released into a creek. I see hair in many of these works as symbolic of intimacy and connection, just as the silicone represents a boundary. The silicone piece is documented following the current until it is retrieved by myself and later contained within a new environment. The sound changes as the video ends, transforming into restrained drips of water in contrast with the continuous splashing of the creek.
The two photographs Current and Propagation are a documentation of the process that has taken place, but also allude to ideas of containment, displacement and duplication.
