ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This image derives from the act of performance and the role of theatres in creating agency for the performer. Caught amidst the act of dressing up (or undressing), the figures are meant to be reminiscent of a "behind the scenes" photograph, where they embody a liminal space between themselves and the role they are about to play. The work is framed between glass and without a mount to enhance the texture and materiality of the paper it is painted on. The frame has two hanging hooks at the back.

My work explores the figuration of femininity through the lens of otherness, mythology, and historical forms of fiction. By depicting mundane acts within uncanny spaces, I enjoy creating renderings of intimacies like comfort, desire, awkwardness or, at times, solitude. I employ mediums such as painting, drawing, and printmaking to build narratives suggesting a form of storytelling that questions how women grapple with the I and the Other; the inside and the outside; the subject and the object. Observational and experimental drawings, writing, digital collages and photography are all a significant part of my process. In the past couple of years the act of drawing has emerged as the central point of research for my artistic practice. I have continued to explore the process of mark-making through various mediums, the most recent being printmaking.
