Paulette’s Artist’s Statement

Paulette explores the relationship between life and death and how the two are meaningless without each other. She thinks about them for a long time and wastes her life wondering what it’s for, essentially mimicking death in her confused states of wondering. She strives to confuse her audience with her lack of understanding and paucity of insight, ultimately alienating herself from all people because of her obtuse opaqueness. Her primary inspiration comes from sitting on the toilet, looking down at the floor with all of its hair and dust motes that settle in the corners too far to scoop up while she is sitting there, just out of reach, frustrating her but reminding her of her limitations and what it means to be fully human.
