Re: Ready......Set......
How has the meaning of aliens and humanoids in your work evolved over time?
Over the past four years I have dealt with the idea of aliens, demons, monsters and, currently, the convergence of all three in one humanoid character. I think that my work has slowly moved from an outside notion of aliens to a more personal understanding of the “other.” The “other” that I have created is Joshua, a living, breathing, person completely destroyed by insecurity. In my previous project [In a Matter of Days, 1999] I wanted a vehicle to deal with the city of Los Angeles and the people and landscapes that define it. The task of making LA the location of an urban apocalypse seemed natural, and as a result, the monsters that set out to devour it only made the obvious more clear. With the current work I was interested in moving closer to the subjects, into the homes, lives, and social gatherings of people, and to do this I needed another vehicle--Joshua. Joshua allowed me to deal with a few major concerns regarding how people exist, both privately and publicly, in the world. I am interested in people and the animals that we become.

some people expiriment with Acid and design badass supercars, while others get stuck on shrooms and take pictures of a white girl getting ready to be raped by the dairy workers and ET.
