Comprised of archival LIFE magazines and watercolor collage papers, this series isolates the idealized white consumer targeted by midcentury American advertising and questions the absurdity of consumer leisure culture that excludes the majority of the American public. The thousands of hand cut paper pieces that make up the patterns of this body of work were cut while I sat in hundreds of hours of Zoom meetings throughout the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. The repetition and opportunity to explore collage in a new way gave me purpose in what felt like a purposeless time.
