Tilt/Shift is a portrait, not of looking onto a body, but of living within your own body looking out onto the world. My project is informed by my daily experience living in a gendered body, a Queer body, and a racialized body. In my paintings, I seek to dismantle assumptions of our fixed subjectivity through images that challenge the viewer to contend with the disorganized body in a state of excess.
