Abstract
Utilizing a feedback loop process which involves wearables, print and video, I condition spaces for shifting assumptions about sense and nonsense, creating portals of play, transformation, and reinvention of identity. Wearables function as a visible symbol of a self-construct and as a nonverbal method of communicating values to others. I likewise bypass language by utilizing print and video to document and relate information visually. Pervading all aspects of my work is an undercurrent of resistance - to language as a default tool of communication, to social division as a byproduct of mass-media advertising and consumerism, and to the status quo of labor and production.
