A process-based work in which the shadow becomes a conceptual co-agent. What happens to an object, a living being, or a plant when light is cast upon it and it throws a shadow? The physical thing becomes dematerialized, but the original shape is preserved—or perhaps slightly distorted. Tracing the shadow is an attempt to fix it in place, to arrest its ephemeral effect. But is it still a shadow? What we observe is rather the outcome of a creative collaboration between human, nature, and physics, resulting in entirely autonomous aesthetic qualities.
