The Weight is a series of works exploring consumption which includes Is it enough yet? and If I eat this, I will be fat. Our bodies are often taken for granted for how much they do for us. What we put into them, how we assess them, ways of measuring them, all impact our mental state around our self idealizations.
These artworks look to answer the questions:
What ways do I measure my body versus my health? How does emotion show up while fueling my body? What limitations do my body and mental health hold?
