When I started this series of paintings I didn’t know exactly what I would be creating. For a long time I have felt that in the process of learning about art my work had lost some of its voice. I wanted to reclaim the feeling of catharsis and enjoyment that I felt when I first got seriously into painting. So I started from nothing. No sketches, minimal reference, no drawings, no rules. Just painting and exploration. Anything that I did not connect with emotionally I threw away or destroyed until it worked.
These pieces are a part of my story, my discomfort, and my journey towards accepting myself as a queer, non-binary person.
