Description
Summary:swallow me (Again) is a time-based, multi-media installation that seeks to present an abstraction and exploration of the Mother Wound (the inter-generational pain passed between women in a line of inheritance) through the ritualisation of physical motions in sculptural interaction.    The artwork presents a speculative emancipation ritual questioning the ideology of healing and its possibility in the context of something so innately present.   Perhaps the only way to end a cycle of trauma is to remove its latest vessel from the world.
