MFA Thesis (PDF): Internal Rotation

Statement

I am interested in using the viscera and bodily systems as a departure point for imagined life forms and their environments. I see the internal structure of the body as being comprised of two main aspects. These are the physical internal and the sacred internal. The first is that which is material: muscles, bones, organs, etc. These are visualized from macro organ level to micro cellular level. The second is that which is the intangible essence: emotion, intellect, intuition, instinct, etc. The sacred internal and the physical internal comprise the same energy. It is as possible to feel emotion physically as it is to have physical acts cause emotion.
