ARTIST STATEMENT
Homeland.
Homeland is a collection of photographs and multimedia sculptures which aesthetically teeter between a playful pop sensibility and a 21st century, post-bubble starkness.
Pivoting around a set of studio self-portraits, this work focuses on issues of motherhood, domesticity, and the American Dream, investigating contemporary femininity through the relationship of domestic materials to the body. Gesture and object result in a series of meetings between the masculine and the feminine, colliding a cool male circuitry with a feminine fleshiness. By referencing, the history of photography, post-war Americana, and personal anecdotes, Homeland becomes body of work that thrives on an amalgamated ambiguity. Part personal narrative, part social commentary, and part idiosyncratic joke, the work slips between comfort and newness, tradition and surprise, flopping between the banal and phantasmagoric.
