“The Manifest”: Clouding our binary ideas of gender.
The definition of the word Manifest describes what a thing ( about, a person, a vessel ) may hold.
“The Manifest” reflects on gender identity and the role contemporary digital photographic portraiture plays in the representation of the ‘female’ image. Does it capture or construct sexual identity? In this series I respond to historic, costumed representations of ‘authentic ‘ gender by first establishing the constancy and indifference of clouds. The ephemeral nature of clouds first defied scientific classification. Artists saw clouds as anti structure, anti order, representative instead of the complexity of human mood or aspiration , as transports of gods and angels.
