Portraying whispering moments to challenging paradigms of social mobility through graphic portraiture, collage and collaborative art
MessageTodays American dream is discovered by hard-wiring (networking) as well as bootstrapping. Hard-work along with a strategy that includes learning to negotiate new environments is essential to radically change one's lot in life.
The composition characterizes two ladders suggesting upward social mobility. The first bends with transparent curves representing the ideals of the nation in understanding there is always more to be done; the other is rigid and opaque, suggesting historical lessons rather than modern strategy.

For me, creating has always been a companion, allowing me to make sense of seemingly uncontrolled situations through controlled mediums.
