Abstract: My thesis is comprised of works that link private, intimate engagements with the public sphere. Consisting of performance and video installation, these works dive into the connections between the mundane rituals of the everyday, spiritual practices, and the natural and constructed landscape. Specifically mining the similarities and differences between the secular and sacred, my work attempts to understand how personal actions and experience can be meshed with the mystical encounters of the scenery I call home.
