Artist Statement

Stickers are little bits of rebellion and identity, a unique form of communication that shape our world in all their vibrant, sticky glory. From covering binders in school to plastering our laptops and cars today, they’ve always been a way to express who we are in a world that’s mass-produced and ever-changing. In Stuck!, I draw from my own collection of stickers to create playful collages that embrace color, texture, and nostalgia.
