“An important part of my practice is the making of costumes, either as painting-objects and as wearable garments to be used in my films and performances. I began making costumes with my own paintings in 2010, in an attempt to activate the painted object and experience a certain loss of control in the inability to fully anticipate what would happen. This allowed me to collaborate with dancers, actors and other individuals and place the works into real space and time situations, within social dynamic relations. Opening the work to new and unpredictable situations simultaneously allowed me to engage the audience in an encompassing experience.”
