"My photographs reflect a fascination with the body as form. The complex figurations, undulating arrangements of flesh, as the body seems to collapse onto itself, image an almost abstracted figure lacking appendages and hair. The physical structure becomes not just a shell, but a moving sculpture of skin, muscle, fat, and bone.
The gesture within each photograph is created through exploring my own physical limitations and collaborative improvisation with dancers and performers. Often I will come up with a pose and demonstrate it and then ask the model to repeat or respond to it. Each pose transmogrifies the figure towards abstraction; exaggerating or diminishing the skeletal structure until it approaches an amorphic form. I want the bodies to be recognized as bodies, but also to be detached from common perceptions of the figure. Bound within each singular view, the uncanny figures convey the body as both abject and marvelous." source
“Dilworth’s breakout film was THE DIRDY BIRDY (1994). The film critic, Karl Cohen, wrote, "An exceptional audience pleaser… I expect it will join Bambi Meets Godzilla as one of the great dubious classics of the late 20th century." The film was selected in over 50 international festivals and has won numerous prizes including a Mikeldo do Plata de Animacion in Spain. THE DIRDY BIRDY toured with Spike & Mike’s "Festival of Animation" and "Sick & Twisted Festival." It was also selected to screen with the 35-city LOLLAPALOOZA SUMMER TOUR music festival in 1995 and opened for several feature films, among them, "CRUMB." The Venice Film Festival has placed a print of THE DIRDY BIRDY in their permanent archive. The film was featured on MTV’s debut of "Cartoon Sushi," a series that highlights the best in independent animation. It has been broadcast in Spain, France, Belgium, Finland, Germany, and Australia; as well as screening in theaters throughout Europe. The popularity of the film continues in 2006 as a roadband series on Comedy Central’s website, Motherload.” web
