Artist Statement

My work focuses on women’s relationship to power, hunger, and love through text and photography. I’m a suburbanite and I have always understood affection through mass produced objects. By transforming these consumer objects into self-portraits, my work creates meaning in the artificial.  I like to think about food, sex, intimacy, as a means of dealing with the underlying violence of pleasure and maybe even pleasure of violence.
