ABOUT THE ARTWORK
My recent work reflects on the current rise of narcissism associated with the compulsive sharing and posting on social media. I am particularly interested in the representation of young girls and the way we continue to picture girlhood as sweet, pretty and pink, yet perversely domesticating and sexualising young girls from a very early age. The Likes series of paintings utilizes extreme cropping, often informed by the cinematic strategies of David Lynch and photographer Jessica Craig-Martin. Images of young girls dutifully demonstrating their sexy-posing skills, under the direction of a proud parent, shift from cute to uncanny.
