Inspired by my own youthful history working with them, and a more recent introduction to the practice of ‘horse medicine’ under the tutelage of Linda Mary Montano, I am processing the magical intersection of time, space, and energy manifested in the figure of the horse. Working with the sequential imagery of Eadweard Muybridge’s iconic images of a galloping horse, I will be repeatedly drawing horses on a long, continuous roll of paper, creating my own primitive, pre-cinematic meditation on both the ‘pataphysics of equine locomotion and the moment when these horses prepare to leap into illusionistic motion.
