In my work, I use various modes, such as drawing, photography and sculpture to reflect on queer bodies, spaces and aesthetics. In this show, you see two of these groupings of work.
With “Tracing Desire,” I trace male webcam models on polyester film over a computer screen. In a separate body of work, “Too Much of a Good Thing,” I create assemblages using drawing, painting, fiber, sculpted elements and found materials.
