ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My journey in this oto-portrait started with an exploration into chapodiphobia (fear of octopuses). When I was wandering searching for a secondary theme for my work I had to confront myself repressed fears relating to my childhood developmental phallic stage. Problems in this part of life are known to cause OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and I channel this in my work with meticulous attention to detail. Which is amply demonstrated in my work that took more than 4 months to complete.
