Through meticulous staging and directing, In Sight, explores narratives that imply different modes of viewing—looking at, looking out of, and being looked at. The work considers the experiences of female characters while referencing cinematic language in frames where actions refer to the act of performance and of being seen. 

I am specifically interested in visualizing and creating stills that evoke the visceral quality of moving images. In exploring these elements, I crafted frames where darkness and light refer to the night, the subject’s suspension in the void, and the subject’s existence in artificially dark spaces. 

I aim to offer the audience an image that is near completion but holds curiosity through ambiguous gestures and the manipulation of lighting. I prompt viewers to engage with the work in an interpretative manner and consider how they might be implicated in seeing as external characters.
