Man is by nature a builder, a problem solver. This body of work attempts to locate intersections between our creativity, the challenges we face, and our ability to manipulate our environment. I have come to see the here and now as a human construct built one decision at a time. Where there is a problem we find a solution, where there is a question, we create an answer. However, the answer is relative and the solution will almost certainly create another problem. How has the human drive for survival evolved into our twenty-first century consumer culture of pleasurable distractions, creature comforts, and capitalist morality?
