“Pain and imagination are both a condition of intentionality and each other’s counterpart. They are the framing events for man-as-creator in which all other intimate perceptual, psychological, emotional, and somatic events occur.” — Elaine Scarry, The Body in Pain I am interested in how we become implicated into each others’ sentience through verbal and material artifacts, how people become visible or cease to become visible to us. Located at the intersections of language, navigation, and architecture, in my work I attempt to understand the possibilities of agency and the creation of a spatial structure of affirmation.
