Hand in hand, I walk a younger self through the dark intersections of the sexual, the spiritual, the suburban. Illuminated by green neon lights, we pass by objects which shimmer and levitate, kneeling down to make offerings to the cloud, to the cosmos.
Reflecting on childhood and fantasy, When You Have Friends Think You Have Treasures brings together a collection of artworks managed by this embodied younger self. These objects and images are part of an ongoing body of work researching waste, the psychedelic, and the relationship we have to our planet.
