Places of Worship



These videos exist as moving stills that represent a response to a site. They are made spontaneously, with improvised tripods built from found natural materials. The sites are not chosen intentionally, but intuitively. The body position and stillness invokes a meditative state, but it is a performative meditation, more like a prayer or a chant. It welcomes and thanks the landscape, while reinforcing a sense of presence and hereness. It is the landscape that matters, the body simply exists within it.
