Cool Change (In the middle of a heat wave)
COLLECTIVE RIVER (images of the bodies of water post activation)
100 Bodies of Water is a series of 3x5 photographs; functioning as both collectable objects and temporary tattoos ready to be activated on the body. The photographs document a sunset on the Ganges River in Varanasi, 2017, a site considered sacred to many. Sharing in this collective body of water, object and subject blur, beginning a process of change – shaped entirely by the participant’s own body of water and its habits. By doing so, they choose to honour this life-giving element and may be reminded of the fluidity and impermanence of all things, all beings.
