Info about the work:
winter solstice thicket creations ~ making art in the woods in collaboration with the snow. this is my first snow dyed canvas from 2020. she feels like the mother of all the new snow dyed canvases i’ve made since then...
i spread her out & left her in the snow for a few days. i then laid on top of her, warming her with my naked body. a cold plunge for me, and for her... a temporary silhouette to honor Ana Mendieta after her murderer finally died. as i laid in the snow, i thought of the continuous war on women. as my body began to turn numb in the cold, i thought about all that society has collectively become numb towards. what is the equivalent of warming up together? un-numbing collectively?
i think i’ll turn this first image into a limited editioned print, titled: “Cold Plunge, Stop Femicide Silhouette in honor of Ana”
