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.

Currently, these “products” 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.
