Care Package #11: Divaagar

Breath-scape

Performance, Video, Plants, Tablet

2021

Inspired by our confines during the pandemic, the recalibration of our interiors offer comfort in uncertain times. Breath-scape is a breath exercise in a simulative environment, featuring an arrangement of houseplants and a tablet displaying a photograph and recording of a forest, collectively performing as substitutions to external spaces. Framing my belly in motions of diaphragmatic breath, the body acts and participates as grounds and grounding in this landscape.
