Towards the close of my PhD I was fortunate to be selected as an Artist in Residence at The Banff Centre in Canada. There I began a new series of work that involved creating contact sheets and 35mm negatives from digital phone & camera photos and printing them in the darkroom, sometimes taking the objects that are portrayed in the images into the darkroom with me. [Wig, Shoe, Necklace…]
A series of new work is still being created and relates to the general archiving I am doing of my multi bodied drag alter ego #Sergina, who pranced around on stages and screens for nearly 15 years. I am installing these prints alongside and entangled with the objects that inspired them.
