Why does nothing matter?
"Nothing Matters" is a sardonic response to the stress I experienced as a college student. I felt and continue to feel overwhelmed by social pressure to act, talk, and dress in certain ways. My CMYK serigraph print "Nothing Matters" is a wild, colorful piece of joy. On the back of that original print was a zine telling the story of the steps to making a cup of tea; each step growing darker and more terrible as a circular pattern of dread. This piece carried the momentum to release the burdens of identity through the silliness of my child-like characters.
Placing creatures in odd scenarios, I share stories of my connection to the environment with satire, color, and anthropomorphism in response to social oppression. I seek to invoke humor through subjects of my environment to challenge conformity in gender expression. My body of work duels between madness and joy, empowered by queer identity and environment, to characterize human experiences.
