Artwork 2: On the Other Hand

Artwork 2

On the Other Hand

 Title: “On the Other Hand”
Date:  2016
Dimension: 100 x 100 cm
Media: Acrylic on Canvas



            Each hand within the scene represents a singular moment in time and the depiction of the various stages of the human life from birth to death. The hands are composed as influenced by the painting entitled “Christ Among the Doctors” by Albrecht Dürer, famed German artist and theorist of the Renaissance era.  The positioning of each hand is crucial in its relationship on the outlook of life. The cycle starts with the hand of the infant, moving clockwise to the adolescent teenager, the mature adult and the hand of death.

Artwork 8: The Fool

Artwork 8 The Fool Title: “The Fool” Date:   2017 Dimension: 200 x 100 cm Media: Acrylic on Wood Panel          The artwork represents my self-perception of my character within the time of its creation. It is deep with symbolism as the format and stylistic features are inspired by the tarot cards most known for its pseudo-scientific means of fortune telling. Fascinated within the world of mysticism, I had intended to exaggerate the imagery of a tarot card to my own telling of my psyche and perception of identity; how I am a fool following the pathway of the masses yet blinded by the confusion of my own desires.  Work in Progress

Artwork 7: Bibit

Artwork 7 Bibit  Title: “Bibit” (series) Date:   2017 Dimension: 42 x 27 cm Media: Embroidery on Paper        The series of embroidered photographs showcase the correlation of the human senses to personal memories. Each photograph was taken from a personal family photo album and provided itself as a base for embroidery.  The series was inspired by the experiences through each generation of my family and how the perception of a memory is manipulated through time.   The embroidered floss weaves the reality of the past and implements the newly articulated feelings of the present to the showcased scene.        Work in Progress
