Jodie Carey

Through out Jodie Carey's work, there is an going theme of minimalism, clean lines, morbid but luxurious. Following her Dance of Dead show (where one of her pieces is currently places in the middle of the Morbid Curiosity exhibit), she created clever pieces that showed peoples view on death and how they would rather ignore death even though it is right in front of them, but rather pay attention to the shape and decadence. The chandelier "In The Eyes of Others" in Morbid Curiosity, are made up 3,000 handcrafted plaster bones.

My name is Nancy Reyes. I'm 19, born in El Paso, TX but raised in Chicago, IL. My major is photography and my main hobby besides doing hair and make up. I decided to attend Columbia for it's great photography classes and facilities. I plan on attending for a couple of years then move on to Paul Mitchell's cosmetology school to fulfill the other half of my dream.
 
My favorite artist and biggest inspiration is Audrey Kawasaki. Her work is both innocent and erotic, mainly using oil and graphite and wood as her convas. One of her paintings on the right.

For fun I love spending time with my friends sense school and work likes to keep me busy. Weekends are dedicated to them and myself. When I finally have some time for myself, I happily indulge myself with deliciously unhealthy food, netflix, and cuddle up with my hairless cat Lola (picture below)

I'd like to better develop my writing skills (can't say I'm much of a writer) and also hope to further understands other people's views and my own. I love in depth class discussions and good debates. I don't have any fears or concerns about the class as of yet besides finishing homework and projects on time and successfully.
