Artist Statement
Here I present nine variations of a single pose. The poser’s true identity is subverted in favor of multiple, borrowed personae, each revealing a different face to the world. As a challenge, I strive for a consistent likeness in the portraits. As a game, I disguise, obscure or decorate, employing visual quotations which allude to the identities of other artists with whom, at one time or another, I have felt artistically identified.
