Art Forum Coordinator/MFA Candidate
Research Statement
My research project aims to seek contemporary visual imagery that interrogates the notion of evil as a necessary part of human nature and the world in which we live. Through an examination of the historical use of animal attributes in personifications of evil I hope to better understand the rationale behind the development of such iconography in order to determine whether the use of animal imagery is still the most appropriate way of representing evil.
Images selection:
"Spot", 1999, oil on board, 22x30 cm (resting image), "Long Road Ahead", 1999, oil on board, 16x40.5 cm,
