Margaret Laurena Kemp’s CITE utilizes film editing techniques that articulate her uneasy relationship to the natural world. Six hundred still images of her dancing Black feet transcend time, melding the past with both the present and the future and position historic and present fear alongside the pervasive jubilation of Black folks. Focusing on the natural world and the Black body—the feet, in particular— Kemp conjures a kaleidoscopic musing on movement and a body’s various physical states of being: Breathing. Dancing. Loitering. Longing. Laughing. The artist plays with the perception of the human form and how that perception shifts depending on the introduction of rhythmic motion and the body’s physical presence in nature.
