Undercurrents came out of a period of sustained attention to the body as a site of transformation. The source images were gathered over three years, and each collage built from layered composites — sometimes two sources, sometimes ten.
The sequence follows an unnamed figure from immersion to emergence and back, though the narrative is deliberately permeable. The works resist a tidy arc. Some images seem to precede the one before them.
Prints range from 21 × 30 cm to 76 × 57 cm.
A collected book has been produced in a limited edition of 50, of a potential edition of four hundred and seventy-nine million, one thousand, six hundred books. There are 12 text pages, and 12 images. The sequence of images is unique to each edition, and there will be no more than fifty made.
The text begins: “Deep inside dank October mornings, all truths await the light of reflection.” Each page following begins with the next word in that sentence, and finishes with words that, collectively, form a new sentence at the end of the book.
The narrative is circular, and never ends.
