SQUELCH, Collage, 2018-2020

These works explore the representation of the female body in contemporary culture. They intertwine Julia Kristeva's notion of the abject with the idea of self-branding: how we market our lives, emotions and bodies as perfect products on social media. By juxtaposing visceral imagery with the glossy visual language of advertising and print media I strive to question the idealised, airbrushed representation of femininity, the performative nature of gender, and its relationship to the act of consuming.
