A geometric garment made from hand-painted canvas, partly hand-sewn and machine-sewn. The challenge here, was to design a costume for a Gothic character making use of primary colors.

I see myself

as I break out from my relentless swaddle

What have I become?

My wings are stained

with the eyes of the owl who haunts me

I have no insides

I am only a mirror

Let me walk the earth again!

Let me move my limbs without symmetry

There is no freedom in flight

I will never reach the fickle moon

I cannot live in shame

I choose the flame

Phallic sex toys had gained a new uncomfortable meaning. I made casts out of them. The originals are unbreakable but the copies are frail. I reassembled the pieces, they resembled the ruins of a broken empire. At the highest tower, a vile of factory-made Testosterone. The base: cast from a toilet lid.

OFF

Cast of my foot. I had been purging my closet of accessories used throughout my life as a woman. I was convinced that I was no longer attached.

After 8 years of having a pair of silicone prosthetics inside my breasts, I had them explanted. Both surgeries were performed by my father. I kept the prosthetics, they were branded with the word ‘Silimed’. Here, the explants perform as hamburger buns, cradling a raw beef burger patty. A cup of milk is being decanted.

I installed atop of it the silicone mammary implants that were inside me for 8 years.

The meat began to ooze and rot, Camille’s flowers wilted, and Sam’s limbless torso waited patient-ly.

Installed as part of the show ‘Objects of Pleasure’ which took place at Post Gallery, curated by Mabel Moore.

I was designated a space within the gallery to instal my work. I noticed this wall, which served as a dividing segment within the room. I requested an extra 8 inches of wall space: the edge of the room divider. I built a mirror mounted on wood to fit the edge. The mirror reflected my installation across the room: I often find myself in borders. Exhibited as part of the group show ‘We Are Making People’s Days as Much as We are Ruining Them” which took place at Otis College of Art & Design.
