The "**** the Girl" series plays with the idea of innocence, the subconscious, and the human condition - articulated in a style that is characteristic of Barbara Kruger's politically charged works. Dark versus light, pleasure versus pain, perceptions and influence all come together in “Sebastian” - my latest and most controversial piece. The placement of the text plays with Krugers' ideas too, where subtext plays with our perception and points of view - who is saying it, why, and in what context?
