The media and contemporary art have an intertwined relationship, both influencing and affecting our lives profoundly. This body of work utilizes media tactics –video, the web, performance, sound recordings- as well as traditional art techniques -watercolor, illustration, and print making- to understand the discrepancies inherent in each of these institutions.
