designer, and multimedia artist based in Los Angeles.
Her work is visually rich and technically precise. Her
themes, ranging from the creation of the universe to
our complex world today, are sure to delight.

society? The "Art in the Twenty-First Century" documentary
“Consumption” explores these questions through the work
of the artists Barabra Kruger, Michael Ray Charles,
Matthew Barney, Andrea Zittel, and Mel Chin.

Identity
How does contemporary art address the idea of identity?
How do artists working today reveal and question
commonly held assumptions about stereotypes, selfawareness, portaiture, and what it means to be an artist?
The "Art in the Twenty-First Century" documentary
“Identity” explores these questions through the work of the
artists William Wegman, Bruce Nauman, Kerry James
Marshall, Maya Lin, and Louise Bourgeois.
