Abundance
Abundance is an examination of the concept of wealth through the lens of social stratification. Subject matter includes an aerial view of an unhoused person's campsite, as well as symbols of wealth in the form of an overstocked refrigerator interior and spoiling groceries. The work in this exhibition is primarily mixed media on paper which has been mounted onto birch panels.
