13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Adolescence

Sharing a love of staging, fun, identity, craft, bricolage and critical thinking, I designed this work that address my artistic concerns in a playful, existential and aesthetically complex manner. The Kingdom of Megalyss book examines a fantastical world fueled by imagination. I built a space where creativity flourishes and linear time vanishes. In this piece, Adolescence, I ponder what it was like to make friends. In this land, people made friends by trading hands so they can feel what it is like to touch the world as the other person.
