ARTIST STATEMENT


In my work, I consider the intersection of imposed binaries and what it means to exist within a spectrum of too much, not enough, and in between. I am fascinated by the deceit of an all-or- nothing mindset and how it manifests in the objects, materials, and spaces we manipulate as tools of empowerment/powerlessness for ourselves and others. The multiple is often a central focus in my work through built, interactive environments that engage multiple senses. The materials I use are familiar and bodily—found objects, hair, paper, fabric, makeup, plastic, and beyond—and used to elicit questions about the implications of visibility and participation. My work serves as an honest record of the darkest and lightest experiences during my ongoing process of coming out.
