What a performance!

Collage on paper, 21 x 29 cm.

£200

What a performance! 2023, was made after Christmas last year. It was inspired by the constant performing of happiness, togetherness, 'oh this is totally fine, I'm not losing my shit' ness of motherhood that seems to peak at holidays, birthdays, any kind of big occasion where you are on display.

Family is a portal to magic

Assemblage, matchbox, collage and burnt photograph inside, cellotape, 9 x 5 cm.

£150

Within the box is a burnt photograph of myself and my husband after climbing Mount Fuji, when I was pregnant, but we didn't know that yet. We have been completely transformed by parenthood, and not always in good ways. I want us to become like these strong mythical figures, looking into the horizon of an amazing future together. Our son is already good at being a pterodactyl.
