Conceiving a Forest Floor

Installation Information

Christine’s work is a re-rendering of autobiographical events - a transformation of events that shaped her. Strange mysteries of a strange world that exists somewhere between memory and invention; between the world she partakes in and a world she creates. She rewrites, performs and documents these real-life stories as a means to gain a larger understanding about the past, and why certain experiences remain with her. This process is an attempt to relate new information to what Christine already knows, and whether or not certain memories are relevant to understanding and assimilating future events. The constructed scenarios are not a collection of memories from events that actually happened rather, fragments of a pre-made world re- arranged and assembled into an imagined world.
