About the artist

Courtney Buckland uses a range of mediums, both digital
and analog, to explore our engagement with mass media and popular
culture. She is particularly interested in the representation of women in
media and censorship resistance. By appropriating and re-contextualizing
mainstream imagery and advertising, her works offer a distressing and
comical look at underlying themes present in celebrated American
pastimes. Courtney lives in Joshua Tree with her partner and their dog,
GNOME!
