STATEMENT
SUMMARY
I’m
interested in investigating the ways in which we as humans use
symbols to negotiate and conceptually construct reality. I’ve
chosen to employ the symbolic powers of imagery for the sake of
interrogating our social symbolic interaction and social
constructionism – our mutual building of reality as we know it.
