My images are staged in a fashion journalistic-type scenario.


I want to capture a beautiful picture and physically disrupt its flawlessness through the process of painting in order to attract and repel the viewer in a single glance.

The twisted and seductive faces are thick like made-up clowns, yet unrecognisable as a beautiful and precious friend. As a focal point of the work they mimic magazine covers in their composure and echo idyllic posters in their scale.

A play of opposites, my practise imagines the model as pretty but ugly, pure but grotesque, adoring but jealous, trusting but secretive.
