The Disconnect Between Action and Consequence (2013 - Ongoing)

These works explore the disconnect between actions and consequences, particularly relating to power.  Politicians, executives, and financiers rarely experience the harshest repercussions of the decisions they make.  Like the remote operators of unmanned drones, and those whose lives are lives above the clouds they have the power to disrupt and destroy without exposing themselves to the consequences they inflict on others.
