About The Artwork

Those that take time to look closely are rewarded, whilst those that don't miss the point entirely... What initially looks like a simple still life painting of the cross section of a lemon actually has a lot more depth to it and meaning. The seeds of fruit, particularly in the lemon, are shaped in such a way that it is no coincidence that they are similar in form to the 'seeds' and components of the human reproductive cycle. The parallels between the seeds and stages of the fruit of nature and the stages of the human reproduction have been lost on some people today in society. Some attitudes amongst mankind have found their way to a place of arrogance, a sense of immortality and indestructibility within the human race. What people are forgetting is that we are no more resilient than the rest of nature. without learning to live harmoniously with our environment we risk being discarded form the Earth like unwanted seeds. The bitter message is meant to invoke thought; reminding us that not only are we no more indestructible than the fruits of the Earth, but that the miracle of life itself is something to marvel and appreciate.

I’m now in a place where I want to use my experiences as a doctor to influence my art; invoking thought to instigate change. I finally allowed myself the freedom to dive deep within myself, purge and draw out the pain, frustration, anger, joy and experiences of myself and every patient I have ever seen. Using predominantly oil with occasional resin and other mixed media, People Bleed is a contemporary collection bordering modern surrealism. The egg is frequently featured throughout the collection as a symbol of fertility, new life, fragility and loss: a powerful and raw juxtaposition to organic figurative work set often against a solid black background. The collection hopes to be a provocative and raw discussion on lesser-discussed truths of gender inequalities in health and society and what it is to live. Life is a symbiosis of hope and fear yet we instinctively run from the latter. When we acknowledge the lows with the highs, recognise life’s inherent struggles…we come to a place of acceptance; there lies the hope. If we accept that people bleed, and that that’s ok, would we find liberation and the journey along the way a little easier?
