Self-Portrait (Body Language)
Miya Turnbull
A compilation of several photographs in a four by four grid taken during the artist’s performance with 'skin' suits (tan body suits). The artist’s body is obscured by a black bodysuit, which blends into the black backdrop seamlessly. She poses dynamically, draping the tan body suit over herself, creating twisted, abstract poses. These poses express movement and gestures, reminiscent of letters in a written language. Attached to some of the poses, and detached from others, are paper mache masks of the artist’s face.
