My work combines personal and political narratives, reflecting my experience as a queer individual coming of age in the 1980s amidst pervasive homophobia and the silencing impact of AIDS. Drawing on queer-coded obsessions from my past—from limp-wristed Looney Tunes to flamboyant supervillains—and discoveries from research, my works connect wildly disparate imagery, evoking humor, sexual tension, dysphoria, nostalgia, and rebellion. For my paintings, I primarily use indelible ink on paper. The process of shaping watery, densely pigmented inks as they absorb into the paper feels akin to the act of creating memories—permanent impressions that fade and change with time.
