Sink Forms

This immersive exhibition uses social commentary to explore spaces of the home, and how one’s relationship with space can change over time. I explore how the COVID lock-downs shifted my sense of comfortable vulnerability into an experience of confinement and unease through soft sculpture and bold paintings.

During the state-wide lock-down of 2021 my home began to feel different, distorted. Home always felt like a refuge for me, especially my bathroom. When you are confined to a small 2-bedroom unit for weeks the space starts to feel even smaller. Walls cave towards you and floors deepen.
