the body is a home


A visual inquiry into the meaning of “home” in relation to the human body. How does one find the sensation of being home? Is it beyond a physical place, perhaps a feeling within the body? This mixed media drawing explores the body as a space that endlessly grows, deteriorates, and evolves among its habits and cycles in life. The body not only becomes a vessel that contains, but also the most intimate space we inhabit and tend to.
