• Artist Statement

  Red is a piece about the hyper feminization and over sexualization of teenage girls in modern society. Utilizing a digital format with composition similar to that of comics and graphic novels I illustrate the dehumanizing emotions most teenage girls and young women experience.

• Creative Statement

  To me creativity is the foundation of action. The create something you must act upon it, actions often speak louder than words and with creativity as a forefront many important actions will be taken in the world.
