Artwork description

These evocative paintings explore the fragile boundaries of identity by depicting pieces of meat adorned with jewellery, insects, birds, and other still life elements. Through this imagery, the works strip away the markers that define our humanity—our clothing, hairstyles, and possessions—reducing us to the raw, visceral essence of our physicality. By embellishing these primal forms with items of beauty and artifice, the series invites reflection on the ways we construct and project our identities, highlighting the tension between our organic reality and the identities we craft to transcend it. These pieces challenge viewers to confront the shared physicality that underpins the human experience, stripped of all superficial distinction.
