(In) Site presents a number of large-scale photos that document emerging artist Stephanie Patsula’s recent performances in remote wilderness areas. For these works, she manipulates her body using mirrors and multiple-exposure techniques to create uncanny, manipulated forms that express a bodily unease and lost identity in relation to the natural environment. As visitors enter the exhibition space to view these photographs of Patsula’s body in the landscape, their images are reflected by an ornate mirror onto a large-scale backdrop of the Alberta Badlands, thus implicating the viewers’ own bodies into the tensions that Patsula’s images articulate.
