Artist Statement
Today’s reality is guided by competition alongside the fierce longing to ascend into what many call paradise. What lies in this pursuit are strangely manufactured channels of both sincerity and unsettling moments that make us question our ultimate wishes. These uncomfortable forms of excess, desire, and hope to live forever, tie us together but also create further separation than ever before in this consummate dance to the finish line.
The Baby Tooth Isn't Loose delves into an estranged exploration of the fault lines in human nature where uncanny disruptions defamiliarize our experiences with the ordinary. This mirage makes sharp turns to emotionally probe both the viewer with surreal moments that raise questions around our notions of certainty and visual faith.
