Emphasizing relationships between concepts and material, I\u00a0draw on the history of art, particularly the Italian Renaissance. At what point do\u00a0we become the things we surround ourselves with and why do we feel fulfilled by\u00a0them? I use ceramics to explore vanity, voyeurism and self-objectification and\u00a0how they are imbedded in everyday objects. Viewers become iconic subjects\u00a0themselves as rich, colorful surfaces, archways and taunting narratives surround\u00a0them. Using the visual language of religious iconography like the triptych, the\u00a0subject\u2019s value and importance is heightened. I am fascinated by perception and\u00a0how we create identity through the objects surrounding us. Intrigued by the\u00a0fragile nature of self-perception and identity, my work critiques the psychological\u00a0relationship between identity, objects and power.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text]
