​
This is an ongoing body of
work that heavily centers around
gender, sexuality, and identity. This work
comes from a deeply personal space as it is
heavily informed by Jozie's viewpoint of moving
through the world as a queer femme. She explores
questions centering around what does power/ownership/
control look like? And how does the power/dominance of another
body alter your own? Because bodies can be so vulnerable, nothing is
clear when you start sifting through experiences and identities that have
mapped, scarred, and sculpted each individual body. Which stories are allowed the
space to be voiced and heard? And which stories are silenced or disregarded based on
sexual identity, race, gender, class, or professions where bodies/sexuality are utilized as a
source of income. Her work explores how bodies are viewed, acknowledged, read, respected, and
objectified in different realms. How does that shift between environments of personal, public, and work
settings? She looks at stories of bodies and exposure in intimate moments versus public moments. How is
your relationship to your gender and sexuality built around those moments?
