This Saturday, July 20th I have three new works up at 13Forest Gallery in Arlington, MA. The show is called As Luck Would Have It. You can read the artist feature they put up on their website here and see the work.
“Luck and ritual play an unfortunate part in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - these photos explore playful motifs of luck mixed with the shame and isolation that comes from OCD rituals. OCD, for me, stems from the inability to let go of control. I often feel that nothing I do will ever be enough to save me - unless I do just the right things, in just the right order then I will not have to face whatever it is I am afraid of.
[You Get to Make the Choice is a] self portrait in a wall of stuffed animals - hidden amongst the carnival prizes that folks are trying to win. Bright, colorful with bold, dramatic lighting - reminiscent of childhood fears and wants.”
