Grappling with experiences of the body and the discomfort of fitting into one’s skin, my interdisciplinary process-driven approach to creating work addresses tension. Through my work, I am unpacking a crumbling self-image and the loss of personal value. Attempting to make visible the unseen. Playing with the dynamic relationship between the physical act of making and destroying, I am studying the value the works carry vs the loss of value reflected by the changes I make to them. Taking away the precisions of the images and materials themselves, devaluing them to inform the meaning. Realizing the manner in which my work is created is intertwined with the imagery produced. Seeing and using my materials as a body, as the skin, as the connections between our insider and outsider worlds.
