My sculptural work explores notions of identity and representation through the use of anthropomorphism in visual art. More specifically, I am particularly interested in the relationship between humans and animals in contemporary art that employ ambiguous, metaphorical and less overt representations of hybridity in light of this topic. I draw on my own personal experiences, and also stereotypes that surround these concepts. I focus on the relationship between the two species and identity through Anthropomorphism.
I am intrigued by your use of materials! Your beautifully woven and organic creeping vine, with its repeating geometric floral-like design; looks like it would and could have evolved in nature. What materials did you use to construct it? It is stunning!
