I’m a Barbadian contemporary artist who explores multiple mediums, crafting images
of body manipulation through realism and expressionism. I have been practicing for over 5
years completing my Bachelor Degree in Fine Arts (2017). I have been able to participate in
some local (Barbados) group exhibitions at The Punch Creative Arena, UN women ‘1in3 Art
Exhibition’ at the UN House Barbados, ‘Young Artist’ at The Barbados Arts Council Art Gallery
and more.

My artwork is routed in exploring women’s’ bodies and their relationship between our
cultural, racial, and social environment. Focusing on insecurities, my artwork explores and
exposes the vulnerabilities women have about their differences to each other, and how they
seek to mentally and physically mask or morph their bodies, in an obsessive process of evolving,
using various beautification methods to achieve acceptance.

Creating constantly distorted female figures on distressed raw canvas, a representation of
their fragility and removal from their natural bodies, the figures are painted poised with
confident stares a juxtaposition to their exposed bodies and cosmetic procedures.

These embellished females exist in and out of decorative gardens, reflecting their internal
process of growth, using themes of destruction and rebirth from the story of narcissus.
