Birthing Self II, 2025
on view at NARS Foundation until Dec 16!
Gouache, Acrylic, fabric threads, glazed ceramic and canvas cutout on Canvas, 35 x 70 inches
Borrowing motifs from my older paintings on wallpaper — in glazed ceramic and canvas cut-out collaged together — sits the insect woman motif (from Insect Woman, 2023) inside the decorative contours of the body extracted from my older work (Birthing Self, 2022), beginning to root itself within. This progression toward abstraction translates to an ongoing journey of shedding conditioned skin and exploring what it means to embody safety within.
Made during my residency at NARS Foundation @narsfoundation and is part of Season IV Cohort Exhibition ~ Cross Crossings to Cross, curated by Jungmin Cho @nowherejmc
