I am interested in the immediate environment: people, social demands and the way that art can have a physical effect on its viewer and how they interact or react to the work.
Exhale was born from the fast pace of every day living, constant demands that can distract from the quality of life and what’s important to the human condition.
I considered ways of making people stop and focus by giving then time to observe and be part of the work as it revealed itself to them. What emerged was a physical response to the rhythm of the breathing and sound, which had an immediate impact on its audience.
The video has been slowed down enhancing the effects, the models movement and intense gaze suck in the viewer engaging in an intimate and voyeuristic interaction.
