Conditions is a varied edition of lithographs made using polyester plates incorporating both digital and hand-drawn elements.  At the beginning of the series I added to the plates during the printing process, bringing more detail into the image and creating a hyperreal version of self. As the series progresses I begin to delete information from the plates by literally scrapping away information. The result is a deletion of self and voice; an internal quiet where there was once sound. Conditions is a vulnerable and personal experience, a self induced Panopticon that emerges willfully, yet without deliberate intention.
