I paint fragmented self-portraits in objects of consumer culture. Food, alcohol, objects that signify wealth and status, wholesomeness, glamour, and other promises of capitalism are painted with a cinematic framing, and with a sense of humor. The objects act as lenses, portals and mirrors. In my work, the objects that I paint and see myself reflected in are charged with cultural associations and simultaneously represent my body and psychological states. Each painting begins as a drawing from which I create digital collages to use as reference images. I build the layers of imagery digitally by combining my own photography, AI-generated images and images from Google image searches.
