ARTIST STATEMENT: -
Closeness is a condition that impacts on the individual. A trace is left as corollary of the sufferance we feel at having an unwanted other close by: the metaphorical stain that is left by an unwelcome approach reminds us that we are mortal and physical beings. Unsolicited and personal, this serves to remind us that we are essentially animal: we wear the effect on our skin. It questions where humanity begins and animality ends.
