Using images, sound, and text, my work narrates the realities of oppression in a world structured by political power.
I believe that desire and trauma are collective experiences of human society. Personal experiences, seemingly intimate on the surface, often metaphorically point to the histories of global colonization and the economic distributions of early empires, which underpin the structures of contemporary capitalist society.
Humor and satire are my means to resist over-institutionalization and absurdity.
It is important to me not to be pretentious or to use other people’s pain as a way to gain attention.
I continue making work to stay awake.
