Original artwork description:

Domestic Bodies Collection

Living in an uncertain reality, the amorphous lines between ourselves and our now limited environment start to merge. These spaces have moved beyond their initial function of safety and comfort into something eerie and uncanny. My paintings seek to explore this environment- the domestic space in relation to the body and the mind, while tackling themes ranging from the loss of the sense of self, feminism, politics and religion. This is expressed through the distortion, fragmentation and incompleteness of the body- body of anonymous and often faceless characters that inhabit my work. These figures are only understood in relation to their immediate surroundings, as an extension of their shared consciousness. The aim of these images is to instigate a sense of quiet introspection, as we continue to repel and embrace our surroundings and ourselves.
