About the artist:
I wanted to demonstrate the range of my practice, in my submissions. Some of my work explores quiet, subversive feminism through found images and screen print. Rather than presenting women as aesthetic objects, I imagine their thoughts, humour, resistance, and defiance. My Found Landscape series shifts focus to landscapes, pictures taken to commemorate beautiful moments between the author and their surrounding, layering them with gestural marks and vivid colour, I explore the tension between past and present, memory and reinvention. There's often wit in the work, a refusal to conform to expectation, and a sense of holding space for stories that might otherwise be lost. My paintings, are my most personal work - exploring a part of myself I haven't completely come to terms with.
