WILL YOU BUY ME confronts the cultural shift towards self-commodification in our post-modern, truth-variable era. Debuted during the art fairs in Miami in 2022, guerilla-style, I became a commodity myself. Passively standing with a QR code on my skin, blending in with the walls, the podiums, and the surrounding art, allowing people to scan, consume, and discard me. This year, I pose as active, communicating with viewers and offering products as I go.

The "products" I offer evolve with the project. Currently, these include:

• Katelyn's Advice: A voice memo on your device.

• Katelyn's Smile: A physical object given to you.

• Katelyn's Hair: A physical object given to you.

WILL YOU BUY ME serves as a commentary on cultural narcissism and the way individuals and organizations in positions of power commodify personal identity for visibility and profit. It highlights how sex, victimhood, imagery, polarization, and self-denial are packaged and sold via mass media, perpetuating a cycle of consumption and erasure… driving us further from understanding our true selves.
