ARTIST STATEMENT
There are parts of myself that are stifled, controlled, or invisible purely based on which identity I inhabit. The demands of maternal perfection in the context of both past and contemporary society are grueling and exhausting and for me personally disguised by a well-engineered façade. Which I often fail to maintain.
