Arrested Moments

Abstract

This project seeks to add to the conversation regarding aesthetic disciplines, in particular art, and how they shape and inform social relations. Drawing from historical precedents and formal metaphors, I seek to illuminate how art is used to make the societies that accommodate them appear more creative and free. As an artist, I am primarily concerned with how my work engages with these concepts and my historical predecessors. Beginning with the Congress for Cultural Freedom and ending with my own practice, I will explore how my thoughts on art and society coalesce.
