While the images and objects that I create present varied manifestations; their objectives are inextricably bound. My art is a constant annotation of existence in a complex society. Whether responding to the mood of a city or commenting on the social/structural environment of the museum; my work is an attempt to encourage critique of rote encounters. Relying frequently on amusement as entry; the focus of my images extend to more serious issues of social stratification and the implications of truth in popular culture. My objects are not absolutes; they are reverberations of ideas and assertions of discourse. (Kelly DONAHEY, 2007)
