The Artist's Selection
The one work I would keep if I could never create another.
The Masquerade
This work holds both at once. The paint, the performance, the exhaustion of keeping it up. I did not make it to judge anyone. I made it because I wore mine longer than I want to admit, and putting it on a wall was the only honest way to take it off.
If I could never create another work, this is the one I would keep. It says the thing I built this whole series to say. You are allowed to be seen. The Masquerade is one of one. When it leaves the studio, it leaves for good.

If You Don't Know Who New York Is Whispering About, You're Late.
Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen drew a strong response at The Bernie Wohl Center at Goddard Riverside.
Viewers spoke about the clarity of the work, the strength of the concept, and the way each piece brings identity, tension, and emotional weight into a space.
This does not fill a wall. It is the decision that resolves the room.
"Each piece brought something undeniable to the surface, the kind of work you can't look away from, and can't stop thinking about after you leave."Exhibition Attendee, New York
