The Fragile Blade imagines the relationship to the body through the loose narrative of a life which runs its course - the haze of childhood memory, the joy and pain of falling in love, the quiet of death.
 
This project began during my practice as a studio photographer, where I portrayed performers: dancers, artists, and members of the kink and fetish scene. These performers engage with the body in ever-shifting dynamics of power and control, beauty and vulnerability. 
 
The body is a contested space, personally and politically. It is full of contradictions, impossible to cleanly and neatly express. It is intimately and inseparably entwined with our very being, our perception and our memory.
 
Thus follows the question: Whose body is this?
