Veils (photographs, videos, 2017-20)


      
nudge,(Veils) {Video Still} 2019)
In nudge an object(?) furniture or figure(?) gently sways from an unknown catalyst.

Veils is a group of photographs and uncut videos (with diegetic sound) that capture shadows, rather than the actual subjects or objects in question.
These works, shot from 2017 to Dec. 2020, form a collection of quiet abstractions where traces of unfamiliar or unrecognizable objects move gently in accord with their complementary environmental forces.
Bowie recorded these in Costa Rica, sometimes when awoken from sleep by a noise.
