My work addresses various manifestations of American identity developed throughout the twentieth century.  Our lifestyle of freedom has historically been driven by mechanization and utopianism, constantly promoting new lifestyles made ever more efficient through technological advances.  My work visualizes this drive toward progress and its effect on all facets of society ranging from industry to entertainment.  Iconography representing the abundance and promise of industrial modernism now evoke nostalgia for a time when American optimism was manifested particularly in large scale construction and the industrial environment.
