Fist in Mouth #4

Photography $1000/3

I created a body of work which deals with a sustained approach of self-evaluation; a view of one's actions and limitations. Establishing a personal truth, a bodily act of self-critique, of auto - limitations and mutilations. An entity which encloses itself as an outside "cutout body" but not mentally and spiritually. A bounded body issue on contradictory impulses - you can stop the body's own bleeding and visual inadequacies, but not the model of the transgressive mind. A self-centered fantasy of punishment, auto mutilation paradoxically masochistic, intense, and sophistically arrogant.
