She is daring. She is alive. She is not afraid of pulling you in or pushing you away." —MW Gallery Director

Skinned
A collaborative self-portrait. Kitchen cabinet doors and craft blocks painted with house paint. I asked several paint experts at local hardware stores each to create a custom paint to match various parts of my body—left arm, right thigh, face, belly, back, palm and breast. Radio Story produced by Dmae Roberts Aired on Studio 360 (WNYC/Public Radio International) Center on Contemporary Art, Seattle, WA.

An attempt to receive automated absolution. Newly installed parking meter sign. Photographed by Basil Childers
