uncontained: the dance of the chronically ill
uncontained: the dance of the chronically ill
12’x14’x15’, medical detritus, audio, video, invented elements and found objects, 2022
This immersive installation assembles symbols of persistence and unrelenting navigation through the healthcare terrain. My creative method often pierces a realm particularly resistant to language, a somatic response where the doing, the making of the work, holds the language which most directly articulates my intent.
Repurposed detritus from years of unresolved illness, uncontained reveals a snapshot of the human fiber and the limits of medicine. A healthcare system weak and expensive for those whose maladies are outside the narrow path of typical diagnoses.
