Obsession, 2012.
Wood, oil paint, receipts, found images.

As a female in a highly consumer driven city the pressure to purchase an identity surrounds me. Obsession is about the relationship between myself and the act of consumerism.  Shopping has transformed from a necessity for survival to a complex indulgent behavior of self gratification.  This work is proof of my own spending, as well as my desire to buy what I cannot have.
