Throughout life we all put on masks. We may not remember how it was first put on or when. Why we felt the need to have one or many. Over time these masks become who are to the world, characteristics that cover our souls. Eventually the soul longs to be set free and then the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing skin.
The bronze in this piece mimics our masks. It is strong and unmoving, but has the power to be changed through abrasive acts. Much like the climax moments in our own lives that change who we are.

Days of Paradox consists of 84 custom slides that are projected through the front of the bust onto a wall. The slides range in clarity from blurry to clear. Some are manipulated with ink, drawing, collage, or layered images while some are left alone. Each image is from my family or personal photos and taken throughout my childhood up until the completion of this piece. The slides are numbered and lettered but there is no order. This lack of order and range in clarity speak to the way in which my memory and the memories of many tend to work. The height of this piece is equivalent to my height at 5'4". There is no performance associated with this piece as it is up to the viewer to interact with the slides and projection for however many they wish to experience. This to me mimics the relationships of everyday life between individuals where it is up to each of us to invest the time if we desire to get to know someone deeper.

As you walk from side to side in front of the bust various faces shift into focus. Encased inside are the faces of my family members and they change from one to the other in a hologram like effect as you walk along. Also, the height of the bust + pedestal is equivalent to my height now, at 5' 4".
