Visual Art – Melbourne

21 year old artist out working out of Victoria. I enjoy celebrating mental health and deeper concepts through black and white line based artworks. These have been inspired by my own mental health and devote these works to “the subconscious and strange world inside my head” These battles have led to the creation of works that show this warped perspective that various states of mental health can create, and how it projects itself onto day to day life. I delve into ideas around transporting myself, through self-portraits, or other creations into different worlds of dreams. I am interested in drug culture that indefinitely influences the idea of what is, and what isn’t real. In almost all my works the number 13 has been incorporated, this number is of great significance to me as it is considered to be unlucky for some and lucky for others. These works all contain a deeper meaning behind them than simply lines of black and white, these works are an insight to my perspective on the world.
