HOW APPROPRIATE is a series of paintings and serigraphy prints depicting scenes of daily life that capture my time and place within social history. The ambiguity in the works lets the viewer participate in the construction of events and the creation of the subject’s identities—ultimately reflecting on how and why our sentiment for one another develops. Changing social dynamics, the evolution and the demise of traditions, consumerism, and reinterpretations of ideas about gender, family, ethnicity, and age appropriateness (specific to my generation and American perspective) are dialogues that permeate each painting.
