| .:love is a drug (1998) | |
Love is a drug (I sometimes take but always abuse) is a reflection on lost love. In many ways my imagery and work is a complex layering of semiotics. I have long been fascinated by Asian culture and its written language. I see the kanji as art objects first and its meaning second. I have chosen the cardboard texture to symbolize the box I sometimes feel trapped in. It appears dirty and beaten up as it has traveled many places and bares all the scars of its journey. Love is a drug speaks to my need to control, my loss of control and to say I'm sorry. I am torn by the extrovert who needs to express my feelings or emotions and the introvert who hides them. |
