Philadelphia, Pennsylvania  Epic Moments of Personal Failure
black and white laser print on copy paper, digital media 9 x 8 x 1/8 closed, 9 x 16 x 1/8 open edition of 25 © 2011 - $10 Digital media allow me to emphasize specific elements of my subject matter. My work draws from interactions, habits, and reasoning to form pieces that are simultaneously individual and relatable. The subsequent pieces combine text and imagery to evoke a personal voice, but one that also articulates common experiences.  Velvet Vacuums French’s Smart White Paper, digital media 81/4 x 53/4 x 1/8 closed, 81/4 x 33 x 53/4 open edition of 150 © 2010 - $30 My current work is the creation of a persona investigating the nature of certainty and self. I continually attempt to rationalize experiences, validate decisions, standardize routines, and evaluate my presence. |
