GRAPES EATING GRAPES EATING GRAPES

Painting

This is a world of bread and circuses. Grapes lust after grapes, too caught up by the fruit to see the hands above orchestrating, holding the bunches just far enough a part. Behind them, another larger grape bunch comes to feed as well, and behind them probably lies an even larger bunch. We are all grapes on a vine, distracted by what we want, unable to see the danger behind us, or the danger above.

FEEDING TIME

Painting & Collage

Empty people feed off each other, distracted by the food they pass back and forth endlessly. Something catastrophic is about to happen in front of them, the meeting of two haunted beings, but they can only stare, feeding as they watch the entertainment or maybe even too distracted to notice at all.

THE SQUARE BRA

Concept, Contextual Research & Creation

In the 50s the common bra shape was a bullet, so people came to expect breasts to be bullet shaped. Through time bras have created a false standard form for breasts, even though the reality is that they come in all shapes and sizes. To illustrate this, I imagined a world in which the common bra shape was a square. In that reality, we’d all come to expect square shaped breasts. I created the square bra, 3D printed the cups, sewed the straps, then wore it for the day.

BAGELS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY

Concept & Creation

I wanted to express my infatuation with my girlfriend without saying it outright, so I turned my daydream doodles into something we liked to get together on weekend mornings, bagels. I gave them to her in an unassuming brown paper bag. And the answer is: YES, I did get the girl!!
