Catalogue Note
"My generation is going through this dilemma of how beauty is prescribed. There's this kind of aesthetic of degradation, of deterioration as a type of beauty. Like an entropic beauty. That's perhaps very gothic or very baroque, to a certain extent. But it's also a type of formalism or a type of negation on all of these different things that have happened prior to here and now."
