The Things We Made Will Kill Us
Brooklyn, New York
01 / 07Artist statement
The Things We Made Will Kill Us transforms familiar foods and consumer objects into bodies. What begins as something comic and recognizable becomes strange, vulnerable, and slightly threatening.
Through absurd combinations of human anatomy, packaging, appetite, and handmade form, the series asks what happens when the things created for comfort and convenience become inseparable from self-destruction.
