Playing with moving pictures

My first attempt at making a video. I am pretty happy with it.

My friend Ryan and I went to Annapolis, MD and Savannah GA, to visit some (of my) friends. I feel the video captures our trip pretty well. A good starting point for my first venture into the moving image.

Gender is not a reflection of one’s biological make up, but a construction based on the society in which they live, and the ideas and values of that society. Individuals choose various signifiers to tell others what groups they choose to identify with.

Flu[XX] explores the capacity for a single being to navigate between the external expressions of their ever shifting, multi-faceted, (self) identification. Simply by not subscribing to the standard square or rectangular format, this work exists out side of the traditional uses within the medium of photography. Through digital manipulation and collaging, it challenges the single image. The multifaceted constructions relates back to the constructed nature of gender and its various subtleties and nuances. This work falls into its own undefended place between dualisms of traditional photography.
