Restless in Rest V (2020)🔴
Acrylic and Mixed Media on Canvas
160cm x133cm
“Catch a Fire” adopts the lens of individual experience to understand the intersectionality of the agent of change within society. Oscillating from self-examination of our social identity to challenging prescribed and untenable norms, each work is a rallying cry to re-examine our collective experience.
Ultimately, the exhibited work attempts to cement the ephemeral, to both identify and make concrete that palpable and transitory feeling of developing individuality amidst the context of shared struggle, when passionate optimism and collective sense of purpose overcomes collective dread. Each artist interrogates these interstices, with their own proposition for a way forward, whether tackling climate change, racial justice, economic inequity, or internal strife.
