“Negative Thermal” is a mixed media piece that confronts the portrayal of femininity and women’s bodies in media. Through the interplay of acrylic paint and collage elements, it challenges the viewer to see beyond conventional depictions, presenting a narrative that questions and redefines societal norms. This work is a bold statement on the power of self-representation and the need to dismantle the objectification prevalent in contemporary culture.
