With a focus on the cycles and transitions of life, I endeavour to deepen my research of colour theory and its relationships to emotion. I hope for my audience to experience a sense of melancholy, in addition, appreciating the beauty depicted. From my perspective there is beauty in the gruesome and unappealing, as such, I explore my themes utilising sentimental objects.
I currently study an Advanced Diploma of Visual Arts and will be studying a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2023-24.
