| About the Artist |
Beauty, Gender, body and the grotesque are on going discussion in my work. I am enthralled by the repulsive, the bizarre and the objectness of bodies and the contradictions that both have to art historically and culturally. The Jamaican vernacular, gendered cultural symbolisms and stereotypes serve as a platform for these discussions. I am enthused by words, conditions and experiences that objectify and abjectify.
Menstrual documents, cuts, bruises , language, feminine excrement, peeled skins, bleached skins, decadence, nippled and vulvic forms, the feminine , disease, feminine motifs, and accents are reoccurring images within my work. I seek to reference beauty through the use of the grotesque but visceral, confrontational and deconstructed.
