In my work, I employ a variety of strategies to suggest the uncertain nature of perception and to explore the complex language of representation.

Trophies play a major role in American life. Capitalism is essentially rooted in the idea of winning, and trophies are the carrot leading the horse, a symbol of hope and desire for the ninety-nine percent. These paintings envision our trophy-world––shiny and superficial. The metal is an illusion, spray-plated plastic that has no real weight. All the figures proudly stand on a marble base symbolic of our institutional traditions.
