Blending  humor, critical insight and personal narratives, these supersized anatomical heart assemblages explore the intersection of socially charged issues and the poetics of the body’s inner landscape, specifically the heart, where emotions are believed to reside. 

Each heart is overloaded and bursting with representations of intimate and political experiences—becoming vessels for reflecting on all the big emotions tethered to inhabiting a female body.
