Statement
I work to breakdown personal relationships that make up my identity. I question the sanctity of private spaces and their value to relationships by exposing intimate moments to the public. Using documentation and interactive installations, I force the audience into uncomfortable environments that directly reflect my reality. I take inspiration from the boundaries of social media as a public platform for the presentation of private life by creating images that challenge the ideas of what is acceptable and why.
