Perception Shift at Union Hall, January 2022

I was fortunate enough to be included in Perception Shift, curated by Amy Hoagland as part of Union Hall’s annual Rough Gems call-for-curation. After understanding Amy’s mission for the show, I wanted to make work that questioned its own making. So each of the three 2D works I included involve several overlapping processes—making stickers of old drawings, making a large painting and obscuring it in resin, drawing atop a large photo-copied version of an old piece. It allowed my work to collapse into itself, blurring “old” and “new,” which has become more important in the work I’m currently making.

Included Works:

Light Center (2021), 9 X 1in, custom stickers, cosplay fabric, and colored pencil on paper

Idol Aura (2022), 36 x 36 in, mixed media on panel

Light Center III (2021), 48 x 48 mixed media on panel
