moon dust and two-dollar dreams

I've been coding for my digital art since 2010, utilizing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. My practice is about escapism and play, with themes of sexuality and identity. Having recently seen the symbol of a two-dollar bill in a dream, I researched the etymology which shaped my imagery for the 100% code drawing, "moon dust and two-dollar dreams". In the 1920s, gambling bet rewards were often paid in $2 bills. Also, prostitution was $2.00 a trick, leading some to refer to the bill as a “whore note”. Embracing sexuality and gender identity, the woman and the two-dollar bill symbols in my code represent luck and freedom of expression. Due to its rarity, giving a two-dollar bill can symbolize a special token of appreciation or a wish for good luck. With these tokens, I appreciate your interest, and hope they bring you good luck!
