We live in a mechanized world faced with the ethical issues of cloning, globalization, war, identity, and legacy. I create collections of excessive multiples to explore these issues. I use the figure (more specifically, the head/bust) because it can directly reference the human condition. When it comes to the human condition, mortality is the great equalizer: we are all destined to surrender to our own mortality. Our legacy is our identity over time; it is what lasts.
