The title “watch” invites the viewer to “watch” the video being presented with confidence and conviction.
Since I am interested in the embodied experience and the mind-body dichotomy, it becomes imperative for me to use images of myself.
I use my own body, image, experiences and performances as materials of my works just as naturally as a fellow male artist might use his own body/ experience/ image. Even at a very abstracted level the body has an underlying innate sensuality. As a woman artist in a phallocentric society I declare that I am my own muse. Fully in control of my work, my body and the gaze. I feel aware and in control. There is nothing passive here.
