Revealing the artist portrait 2021
This performance requires the audience’s participation to reveal the artist to the world. Through this performance we see how erasing becomes a means of painting. This portrait is using excessive symbolism, inspired by Hyacinthe Rigaud’s Portrait of Louis XIV, in doing so I aim to place the female artist in a position of power.

The artist fighting to be seen 2020
The artist’s appearance focuses on the emergence of the artist and their quest in finding their own voice, illustrating the struggle and strength that comes with being an artist. In this work I use my own body to make my mark in the art world creating my own identity as an artist. I am using all my strength and energy in creating my own frame and artistic path, within the golden large frame fulled with expectations.
