Title: Pretending with a Shadow
Size: 60.96cm x 91.44cm Medium: Acrylic Paint and Canvas Completion: December 2022 Exhibition Text:
This artwork is inspired by the works of Giovanni Boldini as well as Anselm Kiefer. This piece is about the feelings and experiences I feel like I am hiding from everyone. Sometimes I feel like there is a dark shadow looming over me of everything I struggle with and have been through and I fear someone will see it. I don't want people to see me for my struggles or pity me because of what I have had to go through so I put on a brave, happy face and hope no one sees through it. |
