About:
"My work investigates the construction of mass-media forms through the disruption of narratives, dislocation of parts, and messy replacement of visual elements. These investigations exist as videos – as short looped pieces that draw heavily upon painting strategies; as visually un-manipulated works with overdubbed self-narrated audio; or as combination videos that build new narratives using found dialogue married to reconstructed images. All of these works draw from appropriated and found television footage: evening news broadcasts, unspecified commercials, thrift-store VHS tapes, behind-the-scenes MTV specials.
"By obscuring central visual and sonic elements in these clips, I individually mark that which is broadcasted and non-specific, in order to renegotiate the meaning, influence, and authority of these images – and as a parallel to the way in which viewers have the same ability to shift the power of media content."
