Spiritualism in the late 19th and early 20th century used the medium of the body to communicate with other worldly presences. “You Are My Favorite Photograph” is a show that mimics the practice of spiritualism to reinvigorate the bridging between worlds, unseen and seen.

Wilson was born in Caribou River, Nova Scotia.
