My work explores actualising energies as images. I have Utilised the body as an archival site to channel and express energy. Through somatic exercises I expand drawing beyond what can be seen. I use the body to translate a feeling and the feeling is then translated back by the body into a drawing then overlayed. The drawing is a direct index of the energy, when energies are expressed, they become a reconstruction of being, an internal portrait, self-referential. It is a drawing of, about and by the energy in the body, energy that has the potential to speak from generations before.
