There is little comfort left in the idea of citizen-ship, especially when it comes to national citizenship. For this body of work I was interested in exploring the concept of the citizen not in terms of nationality, but rather in relation to youth and masculinity - knowing well that these topics are embedded with plenty of narratives around privilege, isolation, rebellion, agency, sexuality, alienation, nostalgia, fiction, to name a few.

I am interested in portraying unaltered sites - found locations - that reveal the subjectivity of my figures, despite their constructed roles.  The single figures in these images play on narratives that are collective and individual, ficticious and autobiographical, fantastic and banal.
