About the Artwork

My work is a journey through the labyrinth of the mind. Painting, to me, is the ultimate rebellion against the constraints of rationality, the alchemical process of making the unconscious conscious. I make use of the mythical to contest dominant power structures, reversing patriarchal power relations and celebrating female desires through a queer retelling of mythical narratives. I am especially fascinated by origin myths – ideas of primordial chaos and narratives of separation and becoming. Prominent themes in my work include the performativity of the queer body, the fusion of science and magic, and environmental crisis as an existential state.
