The consumer driven notions of beauty are sad and pathetic — our attention to the pretty and attractive has overcome our desire for anything of value. Materials are cheap today; so are ideas. We do not hold one meaning to the visual vernacular of our everyday lives. My work enthralls with faked sensations and empty thrills.
The parody of an experience.
