The palette of this body of work evokes the sacred feminine energy soft, grounded and nurturing.
Flow of life is based on the everyday gestures of a fleeting moment. It is within the everyday mundane that we are able to see the value of a single moment. When you sit in the present you allow your mind to observe that which is unfolding in front of you. “Stop and smell the roses.” When we are able to sit in a state of gratitude, we allow space within the mind to appreciate the simple gestures that the world is presenting to us. The works are responding to basic forms that are present within everyday living.
Female energy, always plays an integral role in the work. With each work evolving beyond its simplistic form. Each work embodies a feminine energy hidden behind the façade of the everyday object.
The palette of this body of work evokes the sacred feminine energy soft, grounded and nurturing. Pulling forms from Nature and the human body because of the essence the elements evoke. A key strategy used when creating the works is minimalism and space. Negative space is used as a way of exposing the essence, essentials or identity of a subject by eliminating non- essential forms.
The simplistic approach towards the compositions of the works allows the focus to be on the softness of the essential forms created.
