The Space Between is an exploration of the effects of psychological trauma on physical movement, posture and muscle memory. This body of work is an intense personal exploration of a larger phenomenon of psychological and physical disease among black women and the roots of that disease in the oppression of black American women beginning with the trans-Atlantic slave trade. The exhibition includes a series of photographic prints, a site-specific installation, and a live performance*.
