The Darkroom is a video and sound installation composed of eighty-eight 19th-century cabinet card portraits of women collected from across the United States. The photographs are linked together using chains to form a grid suspended from the ceiling. The video of a woman's full-body silhouette, fluidly and seductively morphing into new forms, is projected upon these portraits. When the video is cast onto the cabinet cards, it creates a grid of shadows on the rear wall, resembling a fence-like structure.

The Darkroom draws attention to the one-dimensional representation of women throughout the history of male generated photography. The purpose of the work is to challenge and surpass these confining stereotypes by presenting a multi-dimensional portrayal of women through the medium of video. The video projection asserts agency and sexuality of the female body, speaking back to the passive art historical nude. Simultaneously, the fence of shadows cast behind this installation acts as a symbol of the oppressive systems that have marginalized women's voices and identities throughout history, especially in the context of artistic representation.
