I enjoy how the artists creates aesthetically beautiful work using found objects. The artist conveys her themes of capitalism, how household objects have become disposable and that the garbage left behind signifies how much money we spend and waste. By using found objects she creates sentimental and sweet aesthetic work, bringing meaning back to what was once garbage.
I think Laura might find this artist useful because of the use of decals.
"Much of my work is in a sweet aesthetic, transforming disposables, the
discarded, and consumables into ceramic keepsakes covered in highly
decorative sentimental imagery."
"This process allows me to inject social
commentary under the guise of kitsch and sentimentality."
"Interjecting memories of home and family into items for consumption and disposal
transforms them into lost family heirlooms."
"I want to create objects of sentimental familiarity that are
undermined by the threat of being easily discarded."
