Cupcake Dreams explores the realm of sleep, dreams and anxiety. My anxieties about life disrupt my sleep. This pattern began as a child. This installation includes a variety of bed sculptures that exist between fantasy and reality. Some of the voices reference the fairytale "Pricess and the Pea."

 

This installation was part of the group exhibition Noun/Verb curated by Keith Miller at the Hillwood Art Museum at Long Island University in Brookville, New York. It was reviewed in the New York Times by Helen Harrison.
