Read Me

2015
video with sound 3′ 55″

Read Me addresses the loss of self identity as a result of personal passivity. Referencing the Surrealist notion of automatic writing as a process of revelation and discovery, Read Me explores the movement between active and passive states of being, repetition to the point of illegibility and erasure, which through the act of imprinting appear to consume and subsume the artist’s body.
