"A series of digitally-manipulated photographic prints. The figure is employed in staged environments in order to explore the failings and aspirations of visual, verbal, and written communication; particularly in relation to the thought process and the creative act. The images form a group of self portraits that use visual states of collapse as a metaphor for the human condition, particularly with regard to planning, self-sabotage, and aspiration. Each piece includes one or more figures posed with a variety of props: the artist’s own notebooks and miniature ladders have been use thus far. The recorded constructions made from the human form and props are further developed into impossible structures through photo-manipulation."
