THE HUNT
This body of work explores personal identity and societal structures through visual narratives and metaphors. Raised in rural Australia, I utilise the ceramic form to create artworks that subvert contemporary notions of value, creating silhouettes that reference working-class artifacts. Colourful scenes wrap around these objects, depicting narratives that explore social rituals, cultural mythologies and personal relationships.
