Description

My most recent body of work is a series of paintings responding to the overturn of Roe v. Wade through metaphor. These still images create a space between myself and my experience, letting me comprehend the moment more objectively- watching myself as a voyeur. I frequently return to the impulse to explore myself on video with objects heavy with symbolism, intrigued by the moment I decide on which frame to pause on and stop time. The still becomes a container, objectifying the intimacy of my ideas. This zooming in and out allows me to produce a work greater than its parts, simultaneously considering the personal and the collective.
