Artist Statement In our overstimulating, scatterbrained culture there is much too much of everything for anyone to digest completely. Similar to how a DJ uses a wide array of samples to create something new, I like to play with pieces, parts, and snippets of cultural material. This aesthetic idea inspired my pieces "Peko Chan" and "Happy - Lucky - Milky" (featuring Peko-Chan the spokesgirl for Milky candy), and "Life Support," which is taken from a 1950s-era NASA diagram. I wanted to breakdown and highlight these strange, clean images in order to explore and celebrate them outside of their original context. As a weird contrast, my other pieces reflect my
desire to experience a more organic and tactile creative process
-- something lacking from my daily routine as a web designer. Sometimes
it's just best to let things happen and hopefully accomplish something
completely original and unfamiliar. |
