30 Minutes Before Food
Mixed media painting
Reflecting on the previous work, I attempted to create a new way that allowed me to explore my condition further. I experimented with various photo transfer techniques and oil paint to create the impression of skin that I have admired in artist such as Lucian Freud and Collin Davidson. I particularly love how the photo transfer technique appears to leave finger marks which could symbolise the physical contract that comes with medical consultations and pain management.
Jonathan Yeo also inspired me through the creation of this work, as I found his unfinished work could represent the continuous nature of my condition.
Stretch
Expanding on my previous work, I explored similar techniques to Yeo. I used the grid method to enlarge a photo to board.
This became the base for me to continue my exploration of oil paint. I painted layers of fleshy skin to produce this painting that showed a pose I often use to stretch out when in pain.

Myself and three others collaborated to create a piece of video art that captured our time in Washington. Here I expanded upon my interest for American art and culture.
