Artist Statement:

"Compliance Loop" is about systems that demand your participation even as they erase your identity. Everyone here has conformed — fully masked, fully hidden — except one. She still bleeds. She still has skin. But she’s standing in line, too.

The damage on her shoulder is not rebellion. It’s memory. Of pain. Of a time before the mask. The others behind her don’t even remember who they were. They’re part of the loop now — an eternal queue of quiet obedience.

This piece is about what happens when silence becomes safety. And visibility becomes violence.

Artist Statement:

This piece captures the breath between impulse and consequence. The Lamb isn’t caught in regret but in calculation. The hall behind him tells you he’s come far. The clenched hand, the flared jacket it’s not just about violence, it’s about intention. He wears the blood not as shame, but as signal. This is where he chooses what comes next. Not innocent, not evil just aware.

️ Artist Statement:

In “Silence as Ceremony,” the wrapping is not a disguise it is a rite. This work is a meditation on stillness as strength, on the rituals of presentation we construct in order to be seen and not seen.

The single exposed eye dares the viewer to interpret what they cannot fully access. The folds are both armor and invitation. Here, silence is not passive it is deliberate, sacred, and sovereign.

The piece asks:

What parts of us are most powerful when left unspoken?

Artist Statement:

This piece captures a moment not of deception—but preparation.

“He Tightened the Lie Before Stepping In” explores the ritual of becoming what you are not. The suit isn’t clothing. It’s permission. The mask isn’t disguise. It’s strategy. This isn’t the moment of violence it’s what comes just before.

He doesn’t question the performance. He rehearses it.

I created this to hold still the second when complicity stops being passive when it’s tailored, fastened, and carried into the world.

Artist Statement:

This Lamb is not preparing to flee or repent. He’s preparing to be seen.

The tie is not a symbol of conformity, but of willful composure in a crumbling world.

This piece is about the illusion of control. The Lamb knows the building behind him is rotting, knows his shirt bears the stain of previous violence. Still, he straightens the tie. Not out of vanity but to own the moment before everything falls apart.

In this work, I wanted posture to tell the story. There is no movement, but everything is about to move.
