S C R I P T U R E S

This series remarks on our "self-medicating" nature as humans. More often than not, we're coping with everyday life in a variety of ways - in this age we rely on prescription drugs to aid us. We are a society of instant gratification and with that comes the demand for control of our physical being; Xanax for anxiety, Adderall to wake up, Ambien to sleep, and so on.

​

With this ability to falsify ups, downs, and our bodies in general we forget about the "medicines" we actually need - the good stuff that makes us genuinely feel better. Similar to following a scripture in religious text, this series draws the observer in with approachable medical imagery while denoting exactly what the doctor ordered. All pieces are accompanied by a glass pill jar boasting items that further each work in the series.
