  • The Art

    These new pieces combine images of flowers, contemporary furniture, simple celled animals, bodybuilders, insects, comic book superheroes, fashion models and sword and sandal B movie drawings of bound men. They are a result of making collages from pieces of drawings done on acetate, and mechanical pencil drawings similar to David Hockney and Jean Cocteau.

    Combining multiple images that relate to each other is always puzzling, but the imagery used reflects my anxieties of living in suburbia, and fantasies of being powerful and invulnerable.
