Self-Reflection

January 16 - February 14

Artist Reception: January 16, 5:00-7:00 pm

As an artist working primarily with photography, video, text, and installation, my artistic practice centers on the intersection of perception, translation, and representation. I am particularly interested in the poetics and politics of everyday situations, the mediated reality in contemporary society, as well as the physical and metaphysical aspects of the world. Based on personal experience, my recent work employs the language of cinema to investigate memory, belonging, and displacement–and explores the notions of temporality and spatiality in the structure of narrative. The overall intention in my practice is to examine my living experience in a decentralized and nomadic situation, to evoke a higher consciousness in everyday life, and to respond to the increasingly complex reality.
