Installations created in Spring 2019

Sculptures created in Spring 2017

I Will was created as a response to seeing a psychic and was an installation based on the experience. The video was shown on a TV screen with a two way mirror on the face. At the end when the screen goes black the viewer saw themselves. There was also a book in front of the TV to allow viewers to say what they “Will” do in the future.

I Feel Pretty was created in response to the current stigma created around female beauty. This is a small scale illustration of the actual idea for this project which would fill an entire room with women in sync with each other. This would allow for the singular person at the end to be highlighted and also entirely surround you with the stigma to portray how women feel on a daily basis surrounded by popular culture’s beauty ideals.
