PEACOCKING, EXRESIVE BODY FORMS AND BOOSTER SERIES
I am continuously enlivened by the roles adornment plays in mediating bodies within social
interactions. Each time I become bored with this body of work or feel a bit silly about the pursuit,
I encounter jolts of inspiration in the media drama of American sexual scandals surrounding
conservatively clad politicians. I enjoy photographing these brooches and necklaces in familiar settings.
For example, pieces from the Booster Series were photographed within a domestic setting,
in the format of a family snapshot because, after all, everyone has a hairy secret.
