Longing & Distance started as my 'book' for my MFA thesis, but soon wove itself into the body of work. It is an integral part You Are a Perpetual Tourist holding the introduction and spreads for each of the sixty-two videos, where directional notes become poetry.
Longing & Distance: Through Gesture forms a part of a body of work entitled You Are a Perpetual Tourist. The book has been displayed in conjunction with the series of videos at my MFA Thesis exhibition in Alfred, in Charlotte at the E.H. Little Fine Arts Center, and in Beijing at the Central Academy of Fine Arts.
