Over the course of 2016, while corporate media turned their attention to one ridiculous boob, I focused the camera on another; ar+ show is a glitch art performance made possible my exploiting a “flaw” in Snapchat’s face detection algorithm wherein it recognizes my breast as a face.

I control my image and the narrative around my body. I look back. I poke fun. I am vain and vulnerable and carefree. This isn’t for you, but you are invited to witness.
