I make contemplative, sad, dark and ultimately humorous ruminations on these things. Eden is ravaged by capital while we’re handed a collapsing poodle toy. These things coalesce in a quiet nostalgic internal apocalypse. These explorations have me looking at kitsch vestiges of the natural world, our relationship to the animal, and/or to the animal within. I’m on a quest to find a god that doesn’t exist, a paradise that can never be found, a memory lost to time.
