About The Artwork
So Selkies are the lesser known version of the mermaid, the Irish version actually. Mermaids were making a wave in the 90’s and I think the Irish were kind of busy during that time so Selkies were collateral damage it seems. Anyways. What I find interesting about Selkie folklore is the power of their skins. They would shed their skin to be ashore. Little Mermaid Style they’d find a mate, get married maybe. THEN, here’s the interesting bit, their husbands would hide their skins to make them more docile and amenable wives. So I imagine this painting as the embodiment of stepping back into your power, back into your skin. Also, I’m not a Selkie expert. So do not quote me on any of this.

I am an emerging artist employing portraiture to explore the subtleties of the painterly and figurative form. My most recent series of work reimagines space as connection to ancestry. Transforming portraits into whimsical dreamscapes that amplify the presence of generational storytelling by repurposing and reinventing elements from our daily surroundings. Each work aims to consider the ways in which familial ties, nostalgia, and memory could be woven into the fabric of our daily lives as an invitation to find purpose, strength and solace through heritage.
