The self is a fluid thing. There is no one version of the self.
We are constantly changing and growing and becoming. Once we accept that to be, is to be ever changing, we can relinquish the preconceptions of the self.  We can become fluid.  This fluidity is the truest form of kindness. To be fluid we must show ourselves mercy. To be merciful we must remain fluid.
My project explores how presence is a form of kindness. When one is fully present, they are open to change. They are fluid. Through being right where your feet are,  you are simultaneously open to everywhere. I want to show through this body of work how being present is a tool for growth and change.
