IN being interested in the impact a space has on the body, I have started to film and document myself when making work.
It was very interesting to make this recording, it seemed i was already performing the drawing without really thinking too much about it. I particularly like the shadow play in the video, highlighting my body’s movements, even becoming other versions of myself.
In the first recording I made a series of circular marks on the floor as far as my arms could reach. I hadn’t noticed the light catching the sequins as I worked. I enjoy the effect this has in the recording, the light dots acting as a secondary performance to the gestural drawing.
