Alexandra Hammond
My multidisciplinary practice spans painting, installation and conversational performances. I believe that all beings, objects and Earth inter-are and inter-be. We can conceptualize this interbeing as an all-encompassing background that is also the foreground. My work trains our awareness to this background - that which is sometimes invisible or ignored, but is the field from which everything arises. This background manifests as landscape, the quality of transparency, underlying story, or the emotional experiences of the body. I employ the specificity of images and manners as an invitation into an awareness of the undifferentiated - pure consciousness, endless possibility, blue sky.

A small red dot appears in the distance and floats toward you, revealing itself as a red goddess who straddles you and removes your organs, one by one, washing them in the clear water and replacing them in your body cavity. 48×72″
