Elizabeth Rooklidge for HereIn Journal
Called Untitled (Melting Specula with Acetone in Glass) (2023), it consists of a plastic gynecological speculum placed in a glass vessel, with the ends of the speculum’s bills dissolving into a foamy liquid. It is, I notice immediately, incredibly elegant; its crystalline materials, shiny surfaces, and delicate bubbles are all exquisite in their ethereality. But the work is also unsettling.

As our lives are increasingly consumed, and our actions dictated by mediated experiences, dominated by screens, regulated by algorithmic determinacy, and divorced from the physicality of our world, the work of artists engaged in process-based practices remind us of the importance of making and doing as a pathway to meaning, learning, and growth.
