CREATOR: Callan Keeter

CATEGORY: Body

CREATOR COMMENTARY:

Duality – Body suits this piece, which follows an internal and personal experience. The main binaries at work here are “soiled or clean” and “hot or cold” which physically evoke very different emotions. The visceral transformation taken through an act of cleansing works on a mental sense too, it presses a reset button. Many people enjoy “shower thoughts,” a term for the deeper (and sometimes hilarious) ideas you have when given the time for mental processing. At the end, we’re ready to move on to something different.
