"Reconstruction"

2024 

study on the exploration of human experiences and the interactions that interplay with the past and future. These two ideas of ourselves build up our values and personas, attaching us to and creating cages of limited awakening. While we often view our contradictions as ugly things, I encourage people to embrace and acknowledge them as it can be a tool for self-discovery. Maturity is believing in fluency.

I deconstruct failed paintings to create fish scales, with this I demonstrate acceptance of new ideas and the ability to move on. I use the fish head with the human body to animate and ridicule our inner blockades, emphasizing the needed acceptance of new ideas in our journey of moving forward
