dc.description.abstractMy works strip away the fundamental qualities of time as a medium for exploring the body and how it reacts to fluctuations of space-time. In my work, I use a structured indeterminacy to find the meaning within the liminal nature of time. Through a broad range of research topics, I fabricated a system of connections that weave their way into my practice in unconstrained ways, which led the way for rich, multisensorial time-based media investigations. The deep roots of my ancestral family tree sent me transmissions from the past in real-time, resembling mycorrhizal networks, unseen but understood to connect plants and fungi to each other as a system for communication. Mycorrhizal networks affect senses other than hearing and visual and oscillate between moments of recognition and ambiguity. But there is a larger synergy at play here.en_US
