ARTIST STATEMENT
The moment I heard the supreme court overturned Roe v. Wade, dread, despair, and disappointment permeated every thought. I thought of everyone in a desperate situation. It chilled me. Not even lush summer air could warm this bleak prospect. “Nightmare the Morning After” is a visual amalgamation of despair that words cannot convey.
