About
In subject matter and sensibility, I have been called “an intimist,” a word coined by a mentor who understood my obsession as an artist with detail and the intimate, small moment. My intention is to create visual poetry; to bring the invisible, the unknown, the deeply felt but intangible, into the light. I am often addressing questions in my work about how the human body experiences the world, both the beauty and the burden of that experience. I love the body and all it contains; its memory, form, desire and emotion. Veils interest me because of the way they disrupt the figure and change the silhouette. Their transparency creates intricacy and mystery — shrouding, shielding — that I find satisfying visually and emotionally, and I like the way they invite multiple interpretations of ceremony, costume, disguise, or ritual. Performed in by models, predominantly family and other members of my community, the garments are designed to communicate the emotions of the body such as longing, desire, joy, and many others, and to address the essential question, “How do we fit in — or not — to our bodies, our clothes, our society and the world?” - Nan Ring
