Being Here Between Unreachable Places is a body of work which examines chronic illness and healing through alternative photographic techniques.
Diagnostic x-ray images of fluid passing through the artist’s body are painted with cyanotype chemistry. Developed outside in the sunlight, a distinct blue mark is imposed on the internal body over time. Formed and deformed by a chemical reaction to the elements, this work explores the boundaries of what is natural, and the potential of the photographic image to be both medical and personal.
