ShaShadow of a Ghost, Ghost of a Shadow (1972) |
I worked on many sculptural and performance works based on my shape in foetal position. I made ‘ foetal burial mounds’ made with soil, which were my shape and size in this position so that the ‘pregnant’ earth could also be the container for the ‘dead.’ I experimented with this shape, making performances such as Teaching foetuses and Shadow of a Ghost, Ghost of a Shadow in which I cut out the shape in canvas of the shadow of the hardboard ‘foetal’ figure and then made a shadow from the material and on and on until the original shape has completely morphed.
