mother dancing/ Influenced by watching his late Native American mother perform at Pow Wows, Guillaume observed how traditional regalia incorporates organic materials that move with the dancer, connecting individuals to the natural world. Using a large-format camera, he carefully arranges decomposing leaves, twigs, and plant fragments to appear frozen mid-gesture, creating compositions that pulse with life through deliberate positioning. This ongoing project explores how the suggestion of movement can breathe life into death, revealing the fragile boundary between our perception of existence and the constructed nature of life itself, while demonstrating how movement and environment connect us to our past.
