Red Woman is a series of self-portraits and performance art born from a poem I wrote of the same name.
"She" became a character and vehicle to explore themes such as: identity, strength, and healing, while further examining the collective societal roles and labels associated with women.
Red Woman is maiden, crone, mother, sister, daughter and also the marginalized voices of the feminine such as: crazy, bossy, outspoken, and awkward. She is the outcast, the wanderer. Feral. Miss-Behaved. Miss-Understood. Too-Sensitive.
The photos were taken in the woods of Western Pennsylvania and the Redwoods of California while on an artist residency. Nature is an integral component to the photos. The trees and landscape are a refuge and serve as an entry point to the creative process. The relationship Red Woman has with nature represents her primal essence. The part of her that belongs wholly to herself.
