Abstract
The author has a crackly relationship with photography. In fact, they have at times struggled to see eye to eye. Photography has seemed awkward, with its sharp, obvious, physical boundaries and flat, printed surface. Yet, as an artist, the author has come back to photography again and again. When making autobiographical work, the author brought the camera with me to places where there has been pain. But the author has often wondered if photography cannot offer enough. In this chapter, autobiography is fragmented and messy. It includes sexual violence, and moreover, the folding of these experiences into the self. The aim is to discover if and how these experiences alter interactions with hierarchy but also influence artistic vision and methodology.
