"This piece, entitled 'Dance of the Swans,' evokes the protracted but methodical sweep of culture's decline. I locate the piece in the give-and-take between subjects and objects, challenging onlookers to leave their armchair activism for an active role in the ongoing praxis of cultural re-engagement."
"With this piece, I sought to dramatize the intersection of polymer ("grass" rug) and fiber (the rope.) While fibers are malleable, polymers are permanent, static. The provocatively posed dance of the fibers suggests the nature's slow but sure resistance against the built environment and the ethical disintegration of those that build/t it."
"In this piece, I wanted to defetishize the paw print as a symbol of 'cute.' I also wanted to comment on the absurdity of being asked to eliminate indoors on a plastic pad 1.5 by 2 feet square. I waited for a rainy day and then showed my contempt for these restrictions by redefining my bonedaries."
