In My Choice, I am commenting on Texas culture using a juxtaposition between the plastic Western setting and the actuality of the birth control that she holds in her hand. Often, the display of Texan identity can become a performance, and beyond the images of cowboys and rodeos, there are real people who live daily in Texas who are affected by the state's politics.
