trans-personation in dialogue with nature
Digital photography, watercolour painting
2021-2023
Every limb is a branch,
sweet lymph flowing through each capillary,
breath moving the spirit of One
We celebrate life as it flows through us

Over the last five years of my journey a call to melt into the depth of nature has been
the compass to research and learn from different cultures in creation of this work
To life's inherent sacredness and wisdom I dedicate it
A dream-like symbolism is infused into the layers of the images,
they ask for a slow reading, an invitation to pause and find meaning
in weaving connections between the picture that is created amongst the whole
Longing for a dialogue to sustain balance, the project proposes a voyage through the essence
of relational cosmogony, uniting the interlaced aspects of creation into one animistic
and fluid consciousness, a feminine breathing all-encompassing existence
As the perspective of relationship expands, the project explores photography in its role of art
as passage of emotion and exchanging medium to converse with the environment and its inhabitants
It is a map of relational living between the visible and the invisible : the ordinary transcends the modern
assuming an oneiric character, which transforms into a playful celebration of life
The project has been shot between France, Slovakia, Italy, Mexico and south-east Asia over three years,
as part of a personal journey retracing familiar ancestry, shamanic wisdom and earth based creation.
The materials used are sourced from local artisanal producers or originally handmade with organic elements

On the inside there was a desire to connect,
to have a dialogue with what was there.
A dialogue with the essence of life : Nature
