“State of the Union (Brett kavanaugh’s face)” (2019) (mixed media…LP covers, Amnesty International Declaration of Human Rights, bible verses, birth control pill documentation, photocopies of photos (my own))
I can never unsee that face. Splashed across every television throughout the hospital as I’m pacing while my dad recovers from open heart surgery. Pacing to avoid the inevitable, daily sundown of my dad. Pacing to escape from the palpable agony of the family in the waiting room whose young family member has had an unexpected stroke. Pacing to escape pain and to discharge nervous energy and greeted by a face that seems all too unpleasantly familiar. Knowing how the man with that face will wield his power.
“Sight” (2019) (mixed media papier mache, glitter, tarot cards, fortune cookie fortunes, photographic prints (from my photos), ashes, embroidery thread, gold leaf
what do you use to see? what guides you? what chases you? what grounds you?
“Medusa (Anger is a Gift")” (2019) (mixed media. photographs (mine). court and spark. raffia)
women hold anger and channel it to get shit done.
