i've add a new series of images, entitled (danse de) macabre to the personal projects section of my website. artist's statements aren't my strong point, but i'm trying to evoke a sense of moroseness through the monochromatic palette and the objects themselves. my favorite image is the last one - i love the bird inside the hurricane glass, the reflection of the cross where its eye should be, and the dias de los muertos bride and groom figurines in the background. i feel it speaks to my internal conflict with the concept of marriage and the intense struggle i have with the conventions that people place on it.
