Description
"Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee?" \u2014 Albert Camus Making a decision between committing suicide or continuing about the monotony of a life void of meaning can be surprisingly difficult to make when all human logic entices us to do the former. In fact, doing the latter seems definitively humanely impossible. In my art series "The Absurd Man", I visually analyze a variety of human reactions to absurdism, drawing from absurdist texts as well as personal experiences to force upon the viewer, recognition of the discomforting reality of human frailty.

With Each Passing Day is a thesis exhibition presented in Northlight Archive in Tempe, AZ, accompanied by a photographic book. This work investigates me and my changing relationship with my mother as I grow into a young woman and slowly finding more of her qualities within myself as each day passes. This thesis project explores the process of growth, finding independence, and understanding acceptance and control.

Description
From a young age I felt disconnected, and found art to be an effective means to connect with others. Guided by this I wanted to create an artistic piece to connect with the community that I have spent so much time living in. Utilizing an emerging opportunity near my apartment, I was able to secure a wall at a local venue to create a mural. I ran into my fair share of difficulties, taking a few lessons with me into future projects. The final design revolves around the university, being located right off campus, and the main pursuit of many of the residents here; graduation. I'm proud of the piece I've created and I'm happy to see the venue/community does as well.
