About The Artwork
Through dichotomies of natural and artificial, sacred and profane, and luxury and kitsch, I am exploring systems of power in the spiritual and the temporal. My work examines the enchantment of ornamentation and special effects, and seeks to understand the relationship between power and illusion. How does this relationship function on an individual level as well as in large encompassing systems such as capitalism and organized religion? Contemporary themes of mass consumption, technological dependency, authenticity and hierarchy also play an important role in my practice. Through wearable bodysuits and masks, sculptures or "artifacts", and installations, I have also been developing a speculative past, future, or possibly alien society. This new work will depict sacred scenes and rituals within this faux culture. The project is fused with historical and contemporary stylistic references – with Catholic, Sci-fi, Baroque, and Victorian influences blended with glittery, pop culture kitsch and neo-shamanism.
