Nothing will have taken place (2004) explores abscence, desire and the spaces in between. While these photographs map a visual representation of embodied experience, they simultaneoulsy gesture toward all that is hidden someplace else, unable to be articulated by language. Conceptually these pictures revisit Stephanie Mallarme's suggestion that 'nothing will have taken place but the place' indicating that each revisiting of the 'place' is a recording, a mediated journey of a frame now passed. It is not simply what these images record - women dressed in garters, corsets and high heels, somehow trying to perform from the wings beyond the stage - but also what they can't record, the black space that surrounds the body in motion, a space which gestures towards that which remains at the edges of the unknown and the unsaid. |
