Original artwork - Matters of Conscience series
This series speaks to a broad range of social issues using a consistent aesthetic - including images of the feminine appropriated from centuries-old artwork, often from moralist movements, to suggest causality between the imbalance of feminine / masculine energies in ourselves, our social constructs and institutions and the enduring nature of many social ills. Consistent with my rebellious undertone, as these artworks were generally acquired by their era’s ignoble elite, I consider appropriation of their imagery in the service of socially-conscious work to be particularly fitting.
