A Little Closer to I

"A Little Closer to I" is a series of 3 image-based hand bound books depicting visual studies in self-portraiture, landscape and gestural movement.

I began this project with research on the study of movement and non verbal communication. Each book corresponds to a fictitious category relating to the study which guided my process of image-making. The images encapsulate the idea of self-discovery where I perform myself to create unusual associations between my body and landscapes in an attempt to visually communicate my internal state. This project touches upon the subject of taking up space as a women and invites a discussion about feminist theories on public and private space.
