I have always had a weird relationship with my body and not in the good way. Because of my health, it had me question that particular relationship. Therefore, I used my art to further investigate that connection. Within that exploration, I have used various mediums to symbolize my health. 3D printed pieces and metal formed objects were used to represent a particular condition and or a specific part of my body in which are; painted fingers, ears, eyes, arms, gums, and noses. I painted numerous self-portraits and still life’s that includes rosaries to show myself in the raw. Within this exploration it has confirmed my decision to become an anaplastologist which is all about realistic body parts.
