KISS ME, KISMET

2022

The mouth utters the word, the sign and the symbol. - Carl Jung

​

In a world blurred by AI, what remains deeply human is our unconscious; the way we project, interpret, and assign meaning.

This 15 part self-portrait series on explosive femininity invites personal interpretation. What we see is what we want to see. Meanwhile, AI shouts: *NO FACE DETECTED*; *THIS IMAGE MAY CONTAIN EXPLICIT CONTENT*.

Guided by my “spirit artists extraordinaires” - Georgia O’Keeffe, who magnified flowers so we’d truly see them, and Agnès Varda, who believed people contain landscapes - I cropped my own body into forms that evoke inner terrains.

Women’s bodies have long been seen through the eyes of others. This is a quiet rebellion. A surreal reclamation. A poetic act of sovereignty over the eyes and  I’s kismet gifted me. 

KISS ME, KISMET  

FOR EYE  

AM HUMAN  

IT WAS MEANT TO BE
