About
I focus on social and moral complexities facing the modern world - lived hypocrisies, conflict and crises alongside the strength of human compassion. This is all from my perspective as a modern woman still scrambling for equality. I use symbolism and animism to build narratives around particular themes and retain the movement and playfulness of drawing in the paintings as well. The two paintings for Art on a Postcard look at people and their pets.
