Biography
Sriwhana Spong’s practice engages film, performance and installation, with an attention to gesture, repetition, and material transformation. In-formed by choreography, her work considers how movement and matter register and reconfigure memory. Through processes of staining, sequencing and translation, materials become sites where histories settle and shift. Her more recent works turn toward modes of representing the female body, examining how expression is shaped by social norms.
