I don't focus on healthy living bodies, I focus more so on bones and teeth, broken bones more so and teeth that have long fallen out. I feel that beings tell a story long after they're gone, that our remains are a blank canvas which we built our lives on.
I've become fascinated with the brain and psychology, you can thank Mr. Simmons for that. So, I have began to dabble into the brain, thought processes, and mental disorders. Nothing "right minded" of course, that wouldn't be me. I like the weird and the disturbed, I feel that most people don't appreciate the uniqueness in things that aren't the "norm".
I think focusing my entire concentration upon these subjects has gained me a lot of knowledge about the body of course, but also about myself. I find myself pondering what happens after death, but we won't get into all that. I feel more comfortable with myself and that you don't have to be perfect to be beautiful.
My art has always been pretty nitty gritty and not understood by most. I've decided to push the shock power more, and to not hold back. The bones, teeth, and furs will be showing up again this year, along with found objects that are long past their prime.
can't wait!
