you me + ripples of relations is a resource, a tool for learning and reflection. It is a visual synthesis of a few concepts that have informed my understanding of interpersonal conflict and how energy moves through webs of relations. My hope is that this work offers an access point to understanding one’s domain and boundaries, and the relevance of cultivating awareness of how we extend ourselves towards one another.

you me + ripples of relations is inspired by three lineages of learning that I have been deepening in my work as a somatic coach and conflict practitioner: The Wheel of Consent by Betty Martin, Loving Justice Framework by Kai Cheng Thom and Strozzi Somatics / The Politics of Trauma.
As an artist who primarily centres their practice in the performing and live arts, I am humbled by this opportunity to challenge and expand my creativity through 3D digital art making.
A joyful dance in gratitude to The New Gallery for offering me the chance to experiment, virtually exhibit and receive mentorship from my PAiR collaborators Laura Anzola and Matthew Waddell of Axis Z Media Arts (AZMA).
