this and also this is true
With an ironic attachment to the temporary, we fuel our desires with the fleeting, the distracting, the soon to be obsolete. What happens when objects and symbols we uphold cease to live up to the expectations and value placed upon them? This body of work investigates the importance of honoring both the hollow and the sacred through texture and preservation.
