As performer and visual artist, my process has to do with gathering and gleaning, but also with poor transmission: linked to orality, my readings and sound pieces have little or no associated images, and when there is a recording, it isn’t meant to be durable. My performative gestures are often self-referential and resemble picaresque tributes – the derived visual objects are just precarious physical evidence. In fact, my work focuses on absence and disappearance. I remain attached to life at ground level and the ordinary stories told and finally forgotten.
