reflecting the veneer of life’s obsessions

We spend our lives chasing things that promise fulfillment. This chase clouds our perception of the true need behind these pursuits – an unsatisfied and sincere desire to be loved, validated, and know that we matter. Our obsessions are not capable of quenching this thirst.

The works in this series visually capture different aspects of this condition. A solid surface layer and bar-like texture separate the viewer from the brilliant colors underneath, where truth often lies.
