Artist Recognition

My focus on weaponized technology has inspired me to develop my own weapon systems, thereby mimicking and recreating the aesthetics of the arms fetish that is uniquely popular (and stringently protected) only in the United States. U.S. Americans have a very distinctive relationship to weapons, no doubt owing to its rebellious explorer history and the right to keep and bear arms clause included in the original Bill of Rights and later added as a Constitutional Amendment. I was also influenced by the aesthetics of ‘homemade’ weapons confiscated in prisons, which demonstrates that the U.S. society is thoroughly and significantly weaponized from top to bottom. The unprecedented frequency of office, casual domestic, drive-by and school shootings prove this point.
