Figurative painting; Women are cyclical beings. Viewing the relationship between life and death as circular as opposed to linear.
The space of duality that is continually traversed through the life-death-life cycles of a woman. References to the animated qualities within us that give way to our inner navigation and in which aid and catalyze our ability to shapeshift from girlhood to womanhood. The liminal space within a transition; saying goodbye to something while saying hello to something else. How a tree’s fruit arrives in the wake of the death of its flowers; the seeds for the next generation are hidden in the belly of the fruit.
