AUTONOMOUS EFFORT

A dystopic study of control and physical obedience. Executed on discarded cardboard from an autonomous cleaner, the work links the subject matter to a critique of automation. Inspired by a 1970s film frame, the figures are frozen in a non-place, engaging in an unreal, mandated sport. The use of ink and Prismacolor on this rough material emphasizes the tension between the fluid, dynamic action and the discarded system that governs them.
