HAIROGRAPHY

HAIROGRAPHY captures the physical trace of movement through performance and mark-making. Created at life size, the work records the motion of my body as I danced with ink-dipped hair, allowing gesture, rhythm, and impact and my body to become directly as one and embedded onto the paper. This is the memoir of my live dance performance. The layered splashes, drips, and sweeping lines reflect both spontaneity and control, transforming the act of performance into a visual archive of energy and emotion. By using the body itself as a tool, the piece explores the relationship between identity, movement, and expression, emphasizing the raw immediacy of eccentricity and power of artistic language through the action of dance and freeform mark making.
