Fine Art Degree Show

Falmouth University- May 2023

This exhibition is about the Earth...
About reconnecting to the Earth with a feminine sensibility. I explore a feminine connection to nature, not the female, which is rooted in spirituality as a union of spiritual and material. The spiritual encompasses a feminine sexuality, sensuality and understanding of surroundings. I use natural materials with ancient connections and forage to create a personal connection whilst intertwining materials to juxtapose their gendered associations.

Exploring Eco-feminist themes, these sculptures show the materials as abstracted deities and unpersonified ‘mother earth’s’. They encompass nature's permanence and temporality, damage and strength, isolation and connectedness.  In addition, they present taboo female genitalia as an isolated form, dominant, confrontational and invasive
