Imagined surrealist table still-life depicting a scene containing different citrus fruits and glassware, exploring light and shadow on a variety of objects.
“This surrealist style still life explores the many different ways in which nature is reflected in the human experience, particularly I find my own emotional and physical conditions as a woman in the states of being of specifically citrus fruits. Each item on the table represents a metaphor for a feeling or experience that I have had, and exist as a collection of all the different versions of myself.”
