"American Dream?" by Cameron Mastoras

Plastic

7.5"x7.5"x7.5"

In my work, I confront the friction between industrial capitalism and human vulnerability.

As engineered objects of plastic and metal, my work sits alongside industrial power, mimicking its forms, mocking its priorities, and critiquing its values. In this way, my sculptures embody the very systems they interrogate, turning the tools of industry against themselves to expose structures that devalue human life for profit and power.
