Edith Young<\/h1>\n

BA Art and Design<\/h3>\n

Edith explores the sensorial and ‘the erotic’ qualities of bodily movement and materiality – how this has the potential to connect us to our embodied experience and emotions.<\/p>\n

This often takes the form of photography, moving image, and collage..<\/p>\n

‘Two bodies’<\/p>\n

In this digital collage questions of comfort of\/in the body are explored; how rest (stillness) can be self-affirming as can action ‘doing’ (movement).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2018A Moving Image (frame still)\u2019<\/p>\n

In this short film the moving body and collage are linked; materiality and bodies are positioned as sources of the sensorial and erotic power.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2018Live Collage (frame stills)\u2019<\/p>\n

In this film the body is again connected to materiality – hands move found material around into changing compositions. Action (\u2018doing\u2019) as an enactment of one’s agency is explored – this is echoed by repeated visual references to hands.<\/p>\n

In relation to action questions surrounding \u2018looking\u2019 and women are raised – \u2018who looks at who?\u2019 and how this impacts how we look at ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
