I'm trying to make something that's both beautiful and repulsive.

I'm interested in the way that we project our desires onto images.

I'm trying to make something that's both seductive and unsettling.

I'm interested in the idea of the gaze.

I'm trying to make something that's both empowering and vulnerable.

I'm interested in the way that we construct our memories.

I'm trying to make something that's both playful and serious.

I'm interested in the idea of the self.

I'm trying to make something that's both glamorous and grotesque.

I'm interested in the way that we perceive reality.

I'm trying to make something that's both beautiful and disturbing.

I'm interested in the idea of authenticity.

I'm trying to make something that's both real and imagined.

I'm interested in the way that we construct our desires.

I'm trying to make something that's both personal and political.

I'm interested in the idea of the gaze, and how it shapes our understanding of ourselves and others.

I'm not trying to make a statement, I'm just trying to make people think.
