The above pared gifs was part of a live performance in the CMST Faculty Performance Hour and on display as part of the show “bitterness/&/containment” in the SIU Cinema & Photography Gallery in February.

Title: “Enter/Change”

Medium: Digital cartooning.

Statement: “Enter/Change” merges digital cartooning with the Dadaist practice of “the exquisite corpse.” I am interested in common expressions of bitterness and disengagement randomly and interchangeably associated with the kinds of complaints that cause them.
