GIRL IN THE GREEN COAT

I had a feral child
She cared more for the pain of the world than she could bear

Some knew her as the Girl in the Green Coat

Each painting in this series incorporates a remnant of her
green coat

Family Constellations

Family Constellations speaks of the lingering effects of
our ancestors experiences and traumas and how they
can affect future generations. Composed of old family
papers and the lining of the green coat, the patches
and textures represent old wounds and experiences
that make up our psyche. The colourful background

trails represent the lingering ancestral spirits.
