The Daughter

The Daughter is the goddess of Gender, tenacity, of dance and of dusk. Rather than slithering into her gendered position in the world, contained in the body corset she was once encased in, the fluid movement of her body breaks away from expectation and is in a constant state of flux. Her movement pulls connected strings that conjure the magic of the forest at dusk, her loyalty to individual identity pulls effect into broader environmental structures. She sees herself as more than just a human body, she transcends the flesh that binds her and sees herself as a resilient spirit, and her defiance gives others permission to do the same. The Daughter is a generative animation connected to real-time data in which the digital and the physical are connected in symbiotic exchange. When the gender inequality index in a calendar day rises above the rate of the same day the year before it, this deity begins to effervesce into extinction. This transformation presents a visual cue for us to understand the peril women’s rights face on the planet.
