Illustration
““Multiple Apertures” is about exploring the collective human experience. Through visualising core aspects of that experience, I consider positionality, perspective and emotion. By researching personal and external views and perspectives, I show that the collective human experience can be visualised as a composition of symbolic elements- serving as a reflection of our core lived experiences. Paintings apart of this thesis address themes such as death, birth, tradition, knowledge, loneliness, relationships, spirituality, and the psyche. ”
