We Are 2010,
The series ‘We are’ explores the concept of creating memories in the present as the viewer moves along with images of human feet and top-to-bottom perspective of the human body along with a foot washing performance. The show consists of 34 graphite drawings on paper and on paper garments that I made out of Korean paper for the foot washing performance. I also made lithographs onto 10 yard long muslins in order to build a structural installation.
In my ‘Foot Washing’ performance, I utilize my body as a tool to draw in space, empowering me to share our scents, heartbeats, and touches, and to create a space for others. Through the experiences, I began to learn again how to practice love akin to holding my mother’s feet that I had struck by their coldness and lifeless from her terminal illness.
