Understanding in the Between
The Bardo experience, originally referring to the period between one life and the next, can be interpreted as any transitional experience, any state that lies between two other states. "The present moment, the now, is a continual bardo, always suspended between the past and future" (Fremantle, Luminous Emptiness, 2001, p. 20).
The Buddhist concept of The Between is addressed in this series, along with a recurring investigation into Romantic values and ideas. In this context, the Self, or the identity as we observe it here through archival imagery and self portraiture, assesses connections between space, place, history and memory.
