Genetic Defect or Abusive Lifestyle?

These activist doll portraits allow some of my more “disabled” and distressed dolls serve as proxies to ask taboo questions about genetic diagnosis and treatment. My digitized oil paintings are often combined with hand-written digital text, and printed at large scale onto fabric as digital originals.

This series is being developed for an interactive multimedia art installation currently titled “For Our Own Good: How My life-saving Surveillance Destroyed Democracy,” where visitors will be invited to navigate issues surrounding genetic surveillance and medical privacy.
