Bathed in Precious Cosmetic Oils Photograph - Limited Edition of 7

My work is influenced by the language of commercial and style photography. I often feel I'm making imaginary advertisements. Ones that belong in my imaginary work or that of the characters represented in my work. There is a point over the bridge for a young person where turning back towards the freedom of childhood feels possible. The process of becoming an adult is thrilling, intimidating and also disappointing. As adults we become aware that something seems missing. The fantasy of paradise post is found in childhood literature, coloring books, art, fashion, advertising, and design. The experience of a real life includes complicated navigation. I make advertisements that bridge the two.
