GOD LEFT ME WITH AN OCEAN AND A BAD RELIGION

GOD LEFT ME WITH AN OCEAN AND A BAD RELIGION (2024)
"Covered in items I regurgitated under a fire escape." This self-portrait is a reference to a scene in the music video for Dora by Tierra Whack. The music video was directed by Alex Da Corte. I've used a fly costume, half-eaten apple, and pills in line with many of the themes I address in a lot of my work. As such, I've titled it after lyrics on Faces by Mac Miller which really communicate the overall mood of this. This was also the album that I listened to while making this.
