In a world where women’s bodies are under constant surveillance, my work investigates time and the ways surveillance plays an unprecedented role in our daily lives. Surveillance can happen in unexpected places like stores, parking lots, schools and even our own homes, through personal devices. With this in mind, I create visual narratives that reveal the absurd, the unexpected and the mundane. With my research of compositional and narrative conventions through historical and contemporary paintings, I lean towards ambiguous scenarios that reflect autobiographical moments that define my sex, age, time, and space. According to Lucy Lippard in her book, From the Center “When women use their own bodies in their artwork, they are using their selves... a significant psychological factor converts these bodies or faces from object to subject.” Historically, women have been more involved in spatial confinement than men, which is congruent with placing myself as both the subject and object. Full exhibitionism, in both body and surveillance.
