Friendship is irresistible work employs invented and learned surface design procedures in a body of androgynous sculpture-paintings that loosely stand in for bodies. It contains impractical uniform proposals and figurative non-figures with deadpan pipe dreams of functioning. It chiefly considers non-reproductive print-making, the idea that outfits are everyday drawings, and the pursuit of jouissance.
