Double Support, 2021
While walking, only one foot at a time loses contact with the ground. Double support is the moment between steps, when both feet are on the ground. This mural stems from a series of works based on the idea of empathy, the experience of standing in someone else’s shoes, gaining a different perspective, and offering support. Inspired by carbon paper and blueprints, these marks act as both a record and a pathway to compassion. Individual steps overlap and accumulate, creating a murkiness in the distinctions of each print. Collectively, these steps record where we have been, and ask us where we are headed.
