My practice is defined by an innate curiosity to unearth the nostalgic value in both hardware and its projected media. I am fascinated when two or more generations of child cultures collide, simulating an experience that becomes both familiar and displaced simultaneously. I am forward looking when it comes to nostalgia, thinking about how it affects us in the present as well as in the future. By manipulating, sampling, and recycling popular culture and technolo- gy, I strive to create a chain of harmonies and tensions that start in the 80’s and surpass our current era. Presenting the challenge of how much we resonate and connect with objects, images, and culture. The content for my work is collected via the internet, video games, television, movies, and takes the forms of instal- lations, video, and sculpture.
