Pet ($1.44) Clay Eggs and Human Hair ft. me, at the Scripps College Art Show

This work is a representation of beauty standards upon women. The title, “Pet” has dual meanings - one is a name used to call someone you are fond of, the other represents an animal which you own. Whereas “pet” may be a title of affection, here it indicates that the sort of bodily changes women are expected to make traps them in a cage. The metaphors are endless, from the symbolism of the eggs to the rusted bars and shiny wire. The multiplicity of meaning makes this work powerful beyond it’s “gross” aesthetic.

Travelling around Tak Province.

I went to a tiny waterfall and it was gorgeous.
