Identity (2005)
24" x 30" Oil paintings

This work will seek to explore how we as individuals "identify" ourselves; be it through culture, gender, sexual orientation, or position in the workplace. In addition this work will address the ways in which we "identify" others. What are the cues that provide us with information as to a person's place in our social fabric? Alternatively, what is it that we do to shield our true selves from others? How do we hide our identity? What happens when our "psychic identity" is at odds with our physical identity (eg: gender dysphoria)?
