Christie Neptune is interested in the spatial-temporal articulations of the body within discursive urban space. Through the formal praxes of portraiture, moving image, sculpture, and performance, she explores how the body, as material, articulates frameworks of globality, identity, and place. Critically aware of self, she employs varying degrees of subjectivity to shift axes of language and power within representational practice. Utilizing the values and semiotics of black culture, industrial and domestic objects, and the material properties of film, she foregrounds phenomenological blackness, the intricate and wide-ranging dimensions of black life.
