Breathing Hard and Voluptuously Sleazy

These mixed-media visual poems combine acrylic paint, cut-up text and digital processes. The text includes elements from the screenplay of the classic horror movie, The Fly. It was my intention to explore the inherent absurdity of romantic/sexual relationships, through the creation of surrealistic vignettes in which the body-as-meat is foregrounded.
