My
work is the apparatus to awake viewers and wearers of their own bodies and
evanescent life. In my work, I present grotesque, and peculiar, but oddly appealing
simulated body parts of appendages, representing rampart, uncontrolled growth
and decay. They are both sensual and strange, and suggest an experience of the
body that is altered by the tactile and visual characteristics of the object.
