Ann Weathersby

Ann Weathersby turns the camera on herself and engages elements of video, sculpture and performance, using the body to provoke a physical, psychological and emotional experience. In Hermit Lane, a woman tunnels through an empty house using a sledgehammer and an axe. As she ruptures surfaces, creating crawlspaces from room to room, the unsteady hand of the camera operator fuses a rhythm with the steady swings of her arm.
