As an emerging therapeutic art practitioner, my art practice has developed into one that allows me to process and explores themes of personal interior and wellbeing as a way of understanding life, experiences and memories.
This exploration involves the examination of everyday rituals, as identified in my works titled The ones who hold, consideration of the spaces we inhabit and how they are created, as explored in When it feels like home, and investigation into the everyday processes that allow us to escape from reality, as depicted in To another place.
The painted works further delve in to these themes of personal interior and wellbeing by exploring specific experiences of my life. These include the agency and freedom of an artist during the process of creating work, as explored in Your choice to make, the realisation that humans are complex beings with varied skills and interests, as depicted in Freedom in duality, and the visual exploration of memories and how we view our life when we look to our past, as investigated in Down memory lane.
As an artist interested in utilising art processes in a therapeutic space, this practice deals with processing internal emotions, life experiences and personal beliefs.
