Interference Drawings
2025 – ongoing
ballpoint pen on various media
dimensions vary
A series of plotted ballpoint pen drawings exploring the assimilation of politics into everyday American culture; each piece examining the perversion of US politics through a lens of performance. Subverting entities that blur the lines between influence, entertainment, and spectacle.
(Images processed using Floyd-Steinberg dithering, reaction-diffusion, and image tracing. Then rendered through cross-hatching using a pen plotter.)
