My next pursuit was another piece I had in mind for quite some time - a mini series relating suburbia to the body. Thanks to my scholarship, I finally had the money to pay a model to subject herself to the abuses of paint, flocking and strong adhesives to create the effects I was looking for. Fellow grad Rachel received $20.00 for her troubles, a small price to pay for the uncomfortable posing and skin damage she endured! Materials cost an additional $14.90.
For my solo exhibition Home at the Kent State Stark campus I purchased beautiful 20x24 prints of the work from AdoramaPix ($45.20). They looked fantastic on the walls and added visual diversity to the overall exhibition. I also purchased 8x10 prints of my performance pieces that I had previously only displayed in rotation on a digital screen ($20.91). Having the physical prints allowed my audience to view all the images at once and had a much greater visual impact in the space.
