Note:
'Yes Men' is from the series "Emotions of Men". I photograph wrestling figurines in ways that change the machismo, ego and physical force these forms were created to express. I push viewers into unfamiliar territory. My photographic and conceptual process continues to evolve as I see opportunities to create unexpected narratives from the interactions of these emotionally constrained figures.
About the Artist:
