This Body of Work is an exploration of the burden of expectations that individuals can face, both internally and from those around them. Personal standards and the real or perceived standards of others can become a great emotional weight to uphold.

“Captivity is always captivity, no matter how gentle the jailer…After all, SeaWorld didn’t become a $2.5 billion company because of sequins and choreography. It was built on the backs of captive killer whales.”
-JOHN HARGROVE

The girl in my work appears trapped in a cage. She has led herself down a path of darkness and the situation, to her, is inescapable. Opportunities for freedom appear and accumulate around her. The bars of her perceived cage are not strong or close enough to keep her in. Yet, tragically blinded, she remains.

What invisible barrier might keep her from seeing and accepting ‘the Way’?

1 Cor 1:18
“The teaching about the cross is foolishness to those who are being lost, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God”

1 Corinthians 14:9-11
So with yourselves, if with your tongue you utter speech that is not intelligible, how will anyone know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air. There are doubtless many different languages in the world, and none is without meaning, but if I do not know the meaning of the language, I will be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me.
