BOYS BOYS BOYS is a series of 11 drawings after screenshots taken from dating apps. I first started this series after numerous attempts to connect with others, to find love, failed. I felt like I was regarded as trash, disposable, by others and soon also realized that I was treating them no differently. To address this lack of care and dehumanization I started drawing them one by one, dedicating time to them and restoring value. Leaving out their faces also creates a sense of intimacy to me, since that remains a part of them that I keep for myself. The installation of the drawings in space, through the empty page, also hints at a fleeting sense of knowing.
