Under Investigation

Under Investigation, Brown Barneys Tote, Leather and Acrylic, 14”x8” One of a Kind, 2021

Leaving viewers questioning their relationship to authenticity and truth, Under Investigation is a genuine piece of art with perfect imperfections, a one-of-a-kind history, and commentary on what it means to be potentially deceived.

You see someone for who they indeed are when under intense pressure. Conversely, you witness who you are when you handle such tension. People have bad days too, I get it, but I am venturing to describe a deeper concept. It's silly, you know - we have these resumes that read back places we worked and for how long, but what should really be on these pieces of paper or floating online PDFs are the types of personalities we have navigated and learned powerful and sometimes disturbing lessons from. The range of encouraging mentors to parasitic leeches, if you are so lucky to come across either one of these people (or all the ones in between) positively widens our bandwidth of understanding and teaches us the valuable lessons we are meant to learn however painful. TRUTH SOUNDS BETTER CENSORED; we don't want to see what isn't pretty or what does not fit our immediate ideological norm. The only narrative is the one your leaders tell you. LIES SOUND BETTER IN AN ACCENT; don't get fooled by the rich words someone may supply you with to obtain and benefit from you. Have it be financial, artistic, sexual, or just your personal light. Keep an eye out, ask questions, investigate, read in between the lines, hold up a mirror to yourself, and grace others with one, too.
