DREAMWORLD
dreamworld is a journey into the unfiltered realm of curiosity
​​​
For over 28 years, I have kept a visual journal, documenting life through conversations, moments of joy and sorrow, and the ever-changing world around us. From the mundane to the transformative, I have observed, absorbed, and translated these experiences into art blurring the lines between reality and my imagination, my dreamworld.
​
​
​
Each piece reflects reality as I see it—filtered through my experiences, emotions, and perspective. Yet, beyond my own lens, it is an exploration of the human condition—how we think, act, and evolve as individuals and as a society.
MAGIC IN SIGHT
Art that moves with hidden clues,
symbology and optical illusion.
In Dreamworld, nothing is ever just what it seems. Each piece is layered with hidden symbols, subtle illusions, and visual clues that draw the eye in and shift the mind into motion. This isn’t art to simply observe—it’s art that responds to your presence.
A REFLECTION OF PEOPLE
Art with Stories, Characters, Personality & Magic
The Dreamworld collection invites you into stories that aren’t told, but felt—intuitive, emotional, and open to interpretation. Each piece offers a fragment of a larger, unseen narrative, filled with symbols, textures, and moods that stir something familiar yet undefinable.
''These works are not just studies of reality but moments of magic, capturing what it means to be alive in an extraordinary and evolving world.''
As an artist, I see it as my duty to document and reflect the world in its constant transformation. We are shifting from an industrial to a technological age, where traditions, beliefs, and social structures are being redefined. Technology is reshaping not just how we live but who we are, influencing our perceptions, emotions, and interactions in ways both visible and imperceptible. Faith, philosophy, identity, and culture are evolving, and my work captures this metamorphosis—offering both a mirror and a lens to question, understand, and at times, satirize modern existence.
LOVE EXPERIENCE
Love Experience intricately depicts the seven stages of a romantic relationship, exploring both connection and the dissolution of love. In Infatuation, the couple parades their strengths, hiding vulnerability and past heartache beneath a polished facade. Exploration captures physical intimacy and the fire of passion, while Organisation reflects attempts to conform, establish a lasting union, and synchronize actions, planting seeds, fertilising eggs, and mimicking each other. Realisation reveals the truth of incompatibility: masks are removed, emotions turned off, and the couple confronts the death of desire and the self, depicted through half-human, half-machine forms and crucifix-like stances. Separation freezes them as statues, memories of love lost. Emancipation shows the subject striving to return to the ordinary world—three legs symbolising desperation, an exploded heart, handcuffs as newfound freedom, yet constrained by the ego, the blue figure that perpetuates the cycle of desire. Love Experience examines the complex interplay of attraction, loss, and liberation, inviting reflection on the human journey through love and self-discovery.
​
DESCRIPTION - Love, an experience like no other… Infatuation, exploration, organisation, realisation, separation and emancipation. Stage by stage, we dream, we learn, we crash and burn. And like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, we then do it all over again. And again, and again.

INDUSTRIAL MAGIC
Industrial Magic is a very important piece in the evolution of the artist. It was created while the artist worked in a small, cold, dark office in Cheetham Hill, Manchester, his first ever studio. From the window, looking out over the industrial landscape, warehouses, chimneys, and retail spaces, the scene appeared bleak and uninspiring, yet through the artist’s perspective it became a magical, colourful playground. The honeycomb floor represents the hard work of the city. One chimney, surrounded by bees, represents the artist’s idea, the vision to become the greatest living artist in the world from Manchester. The cloud above the chimney is shaped like a pyramid, with the triangle representing the supportive people of the city who back the artist. Hidden in the scene is the artist floating on a ladder, showing that even in this office the imagination and perception was consciously curating reality.
​
DESCRIPTION - Manchester is a place where dreams do come true. The bees make the honey, the honey fuels imagination, imagination creates the action, and the action with spirit produces magic.

MUSIC
Music is a devotion to sound, vibration, and the unseen energy that shapes our world. At its centre, a ball of light bursts with musical instruments, xylophone, piano, guitar, drums, brass torn apart to reveal their inner mechanisms, bent and reimagined, showing the raw force of creation. Wings, glitter, and fantastical elements swirl through the composition, symbolising wonder, magic, and curiosity. Planets and cosmic references echo how music connects us to the universe, conveying emotions, memory, and shared human experience. This piece reflects on a time when music was pure, a language of feeling and life, before technological manipulation transformed sound into engineered sensation. It celebrates music as a living, breathing force that shapes minds, bodies, and spirits.
​
DESCRIPTION - Seven notes can produce a million masterpieces.
When I hear music, I see colours, patterns, shapes, energy, shadows, auras, candy floss, exotic birds, the galaxy, my future, my past, love, fear, pain, belief, awareness, compassion, Debussy, candy floss, desire, passion, contrast, the devil and God.

BRICK LANE
Brick Lane captures both the spirit and the loss of Shoreditch’s creative community. The brick, alive with colours of graffiti, symbolises the artists whose work once gave the area its vibrancy. From the gutter, oil seeps, forming a hole where a small businessman emerges, representing how commerce rose from the gutter to overshadow the culture it consumed. Within the oil, the shadowed outline of Shoreditch appears, its reflection shaped as a £10 note, showing how money redefined identity. This imagery speaks to a community once rich in diversity of cultures, ideas, and creatives who made the streets a living art gallery. Brick Lane is a dedication to those artists and people from Shoreditch, and a reminder of how authenticity is being replaced by gentrified, homogenized non-culture.
​
DESCRIPTION - The freedom of art lives in Brick Lane, the shadow of Shoreditch awaits gentrification and monetisation of the free.

EMOJI LOVE
Emoji Love displays an array of 99 emojis that form the image of two people kissing, transforming simple digital symbols into a narrative of contemporary romance. Each emoji represents a feeling—happiness, fear, anger, desire, frustration—building a language of emotion that transcends words. Inspired by how communication has shifted in the digital age, the artwork reflects on love experienced through screens, where interaction can be instant, curated, and safe, yet distant. Symbols, like hieroglyphs or ancient scripts, have always allowed humans to convey meaning, and here emojis become a modern evolution of that instinct. Emoji Love captures both the intimacy and the detachment of contemporary affection, showing how emotion persists even in an increasingly digital world.
​
DESCRIPTION - Old-fashioned, traditional love is no longer the norm. Nowadays, the experience begins with symbols projected on the screens of electronic boxes. No more dates, real interactions, or bad experiences. We can remain still and simply engage others with emojis.

AGES
Ages reflects on the evolving relationship between humans and the Earth across time. The artwork depicts a large arm representing the planet, with four hands symbolising the agricultural, industrial, technological, and spiritual periods of human evolution, each shaping and impacting the natural world. As humans extract, build, and manipulate, the Earth undergoes gradual decay, showing how our actions leave lasting marks. The agricultural age works with the land, the industrial and technological ages exploit it, and the spiritual age, represented as a queen, may determine the next phase. Hidden clues in the piece hint that the AI era, disguised as spiritual, could become an overriding factor in our existence. The work asks whether humanity will create a destructive period or awaken to a more conscious, natural, and collaborative way of living.
​
DESCRIPTION - The agricultural, industrial, and technological ages have left their mark on this earth.Will the spiritual age be the pawn that dethrones the age of man?

ALIGHT CITY
Alight City explores the inner workings of urban life, inspired by hours spent in my grandfather’s shed, observing his machinery and electronics that collectively look like a cityscape. The artwork transforms engines, hammers, weighing machines, pipes, and batteries into a miniature cityscape, showing how infrastructure, industry, and human ingenuity shape the rhythm of a city. Though complex, engineered, and sometimes harsh, there is always a light shining from the heart of the machinery representing humanity, community, and the subtle magic people bring to their environment. The glow recalls my grandfather’s mysterious light in his workshop, a symbol of creativity and life. Alight City celebrates the hidden systems, creativity, and wonder that sustain urban existence, reminding us that people are what make a city truly alive and transcendent.
​
DESCRIPTION - The power of a city lies deep within its structure.
Machines generate movement on the streets, pipes enable energy flow to the engines littered everywhere, and a supernatural light brings life to everything.

HER RENAISSANCE
Her Renaissance is a meditation on transformation, capturing the emergence of a woman entering a new phase of life. Wrapped in layered fabrics and abstract forms, the figures reflect the transcendence of outer appearances, personalities, and perceptions, embodying the shift of mind, body, and spirit. The artwork observes the quiet power and serenity of change, showing a graceful acceptance of a new reality and an awakening to fresh possibilities. It explores the challenges and beauty of menopause, reframing it not as an ending but as a beginning, a subtle redefinition of identity. Her Renaissance celebrates the resilience and evolving strength of women, highlighting the opportunity for self-awareness, renewal, and alignment with the next chapter of life.
​
DESCRIPTION - Her Renaissance carries the weight of what has passed while opening space for what is becoming. It moves between reflection and emergence, holding both the quiet and the profound in a single shift.

MANCHESTER MAGIC PUDDLE
Magic Puddle Manchester is part of a series of Magic Puddles created by the artist to reflect different locations and stages of his journey, with Manchester as the central piece. Over a decade, while living in the city centre and struggling to communicate his creativity, the artist walked the streets, photographing and sketching landmarks. One evening, inspired by a poem about reflection, he imagined the city in a puddle, half the skyline upside down, representing both challenges and triumphs. The top layer captures the difficulties he faced, the bottom the growth, opportunity, and expansion of his creativity. The work celebrates the resilience and reflective spirit of Manchester and its people. With 99 landmarks and hidden references to the artist himself, the piece is a watercolour-like digital landscape that can be viewed from any angle, always conveying magic, evolution, and wonder.
​
DESCRIPTION - Manchester​ ​is​ ​my​ ​miracle​ ​city.
​I​ ​appreciate​ ​​those​ ​who​ ​give​ ​it​ ​life. I acknowledge those who inject industry and creativity into the lifeless. Some survive it while others thrive in it. Manchester reflects all those who make it through its Magic Puddle.

CUT & TASTE
Cut & Taste reflects the wanderer’s adventurous yet isolating experience of living in the city. Created while the artist lived in central London, the artwork conveys a series of fragmented, “cut and paste” experiences opportunities that felt uncertain, fleeting, and unformulated. The grey space represents the neutrality and ambiguity of the city, while a floating knife marks the precarious path the artist navigated. At the tip of the knife is a tree, symbolising nature, creativity, spirituality, and life the true source of magic. Moving through this two-dimensional reality, the artist had to balance risk and uncertainty at every step. Cut & Taste captures the tension, jeopardy, and forced creativity of city life, exploring both its allure and its loneliness, and reflecting the courage required to traverse its ever-shifting landscape.
​
DESCRIPTION - The City experience is a sequence of snapshots and soundbites. Many come for a cut of the action while others dream of tasting the edge.

FIND NO ENEMY
Find No Enemy is a deeply powerful exploration of the mind, depicting a face composed of 99 people, silhouettes, body parts, a baby, hands, alongside over 200 elements of nature, shapes, and patterns. This intricate profile represents anxiety, mental illness, trauma, and the tension created by negative thinking. The artwork captures how fear, self-doubt, and unresolved pain affect the mind, body, and spirit, shaping the reality we experience. A moon appears in the top left, symbolising that this is only half the story. By becoming the observer of one’s thoughts, pain, and patterns, it is possible to transcend these challenges. Find No Enemy conveys the artist’s personal journey across 20 years of life, showing that true freedom arises not from confronting external foes, but from understanding and releasing the inner struggles within.
​
DESCRIPTION - If there is no enemy inside. No enemy outside can ever do you harm.
Fear and love cannot occupy the same space. Find thyself.

HEAD OF STATE
Head of State was originally created as an album cover but evolved into a deeply personal exploration of the artist’s journey. The artwork is a complex amalgamation of engine parts, machines, nature, cityscapes of London and Manchester, and references to industry, politics, and spirituality. At first glance it appears abstract, but hidden within are optical illusions and a face, the artist himself, revealing a story of ascent and uncertainty. At the bottom, the artist climbs a ladder from a personal hell of creative struggle, navigating a chaotic, machine-like art world filled with closed doors and dead ends. Red spikes represent fire, his challenges and past hardships. The piece shows that the industry, the obstacles, and the perceived “hell” exist only in the mind. Head of State embodies self-ownership, the power of creativity, and the idea that true artistry arises from creating through chaos, independent of external labels or systems.
​
DESCRIPTION - As a young artist, I was somewhere between a self-created hell and an industry that was made up of machines, rules and dead ends. I instinctively kept moving towards a principle. ​I am art, and I am industry. I am the head of State!

GOLDEN BALLS
Golden Balls is a satirical exploration of celebrity, fame, and the commodification of private life. Inspired by Rodin’s The Thinker, the artwork depicts a footballer seated on a toilet, with golden balls - his nickname, emerging, alongside a barcode-like toilet roll, receipts, football boots, and the England flag. Victoria Beckham’s knickers, magazines, cameras, and microphones surround him, connected to a ball and chain, representing the media scrutiny and relentless exposure of public life. Created between 2005 and 2015, the piece reflects the rise of reality television and celebrities curating every aspect of their lives for public consumption. Golden Balls critiques how natural talent and personal privacy are consumed by fame, marketing, and spectacle, highlighting the blurred lines between authentic reality and performative exposure, long before social media made overexposure the norm.
​
DESCRIPTION - The meteoric rise of an idol is no coincidence. The journey of stardom starts with the discovery of natural talent. From there, exposure to the world creates endless opportunity and monetary success. But at what price? At what cost to the idol and the worshippers? Neither win, both are consumed, and the natural talent becomes immaterial.

CAPITOL
CAPITOL is an intense observation of ambition, desire, and material obsession in the modern world. The artwork depicts towering skyscrapers from various capitol cities resembling syringes, layered with textures of scanned banknotes and cracked surfaces, reflecting the hollow pursuit of wealth and status. Created from thousands of scanned currency notes and incorporating real cocaine and bodily elements, it embodies the extremes people endure to achieve perceived success. Through its chaotic, visceral composition, CAPITOL critiques the archetype of the ambitious individual in global capitals, people chasing money, sex, and power, while sacrificing authenticity, relationships, and selfhood. The piece exposes the illusion of fulfillment tied to desire, portraying the seductive yet destructive nature of greed, ambition, and societal obsession with material symbols of achievement.
​
DESCRIPTION - Sex, drugs, power, are you ready to consume? Do you want to taste it? Do you have the capacity to desire? Do you have the CAPITOL?

POP QUEEN
Pop Queen was inspired by the language of Andy Warhol and the idea of profiles, silhouettes, and repetition. The artwork takes the most famous profile in British culture, the Queen’s head stamped onto currency and postage - and reshapes it into a playful game. Each head is formed in the Queen’s outline but filled with the profiles of other cultural icons: actors, musicians, comedians, and film characters. Some are instantly recognisable, others more ambiguous, which makes the piece an interactive puzzle for the viewer. The work questions how much we really know about public figures. We see them endlessly, their images repeated until they become symbols rather than people, yet their true personalities remain hidden. Through humour, colour, and popular culture, Pop Queen asks whether the face we recognise is ever enough to know the person behind it.
​
DESCRIPTION - Indeed the Queen has a personality beyond the one stamped in our heads. She is an icon disguised as popular icons.

BOXING DAY
Boxing Day is a retro, quirky artwork that distorts perspective to show how life is contained by boxes. A buried gift-box becomes the centrepiece, surrounded by cosmic stars yet filled with familiar square realities: a barcode, a dice with an impossible seven, a graduation hat, a safe, a TV, a cereal box, a room with a computer, phone, tissue box, clock and certificates, a car, a lift, even the Earth itself displayed on a monitor. Every detail reflects how we consume, learn, communicate, work and even die inside boxes, despite nature having no straight lines. Inspired partly by a Tony Robbins lecture, the artwork asks viewers to step outside these conditioned shapes, to see freedom and creativity beyond the contrived patterns of modern life. Within distortion lies the reminder: reality need not be boxed.
​
DESCRIPTION - Life is gift-wrapped in a broken box.
You consume in a box, put your money in a box, eat from a box, hang your square hat in a box, watch the box, work in a box, drive in a box, type on a box, call your mom on a box, watch time in a box, display awards in a box, go up and down in an electric box, and die in a box. There are no straight lines in nature. How many do you experience in your day?

FABRIC
At first glance, the composition blooms with exotic flowers and delicate colour. Look closer, and every petal, stem, and even the bee itself is woven from cloth—threads of silk, cotton, wool and synthetic fibres. What appears to be nature is, in truth, fabric dressed as flora. This artwork blurs the line between beauty and manufacture, reflecting the rise of fast fashion. Fabrics once tied to craft and longevity now symbolise disposability, garments worn briefly before being cast aside, their dyes and fibres leaching into rivers, landfills and ecosystems. The bee, a symbol of consumption, gathers not pollen but excess, feeding off a cycle of desire and waste. Fabric is both playful illusion and sharp commentary: a reminder that the textiles we take for granted do not vanish when discarded, but continue to shape the very environment we mistake for natural.
​
DESCRIPTION - It’s beauty, but it’s disposable, every petal, every thread, a reflection of a world. The bee consumes, the world continues, and nothing natural survives untouched.

BEE WORKER
Worker Bee reflects the energy, ambition, and collective spirit of Manchester during its industrial rise. The artwork depicts a man hammering iron, but on closer inspection, the figure is formed from over 6,000 digitally edited bees. Each bee represents the countless individuals whose efforts, ingenuity, and determination shaped the city, its industries, and its culture. The canal in the background, the sparks of fire, and the iron tones evoke the grit, sweat, and magic of creation. This piece is not about a single person; it is about collaboration, community, and the unseen force that drives progress. It celebrates the idea that industry is a living, breathing organism, sustained by countless hands and hearts, and reminds us of the city’s enduring spirit and the mystical energy that still courses through Manchester today.
​
DESCRIPTION - A million bees make the man.
Industry is raw, rough, challenging, heartbreaking, moving, cold, fake, oppressive, controlling, uninspiring, depressing, soul-destroying, uncomfortable, painful, and black. But, once you embrace the above, all that's left is the WORKER.

BUTTERFLY EFFECT
The Butterfly Effect depicts a hand holding a grenade, formed entirely from dozens of butterflies. This piece comes from a series exploring conflict and peace, questioning whether one can exist without the other. The artwork reflects the perpetual cycles of human ambition, war, and desire for power, showing how our actions, individual and collective, feed into a larger chain of consequences. Every choice, every consumption, every support of systems contributes to the ongoing balance of creation and destruction. The butterflies symbolize both fragility and force, illustrating how even small actions ripple through the world. The grenade embodies the ever-present potential for conflict. Together, they capture the tension between peace and war, illustrating that our lives are intertwined in a constant, infinite flow of cause and effect.
​
DESCRIPTION - A hand made from butterflies holds a grenade, balancing destruction and fragility. Every element hints at unseen consequences, where action and reaction are inseparable and ongoing.

THE MANCUNIAN ROUTE
The Mancunian Route was inspired by a dry leaf I found while flying over Europe, thinking about Manchester and autumn colours. The artwork transforms that leaf into a map of the city, its skeleton becoming roads, its stems leading to districts, and the city lights emerging like sparks at night. From afar, it’s just a floating leaf; up close, it reveals the intricate life of Manchester, the city’s energy flowing through its veins. It’s simple, abstract, yet intimate, a reflection of movement, connection, and the pulse of the city. For me, it’s both a route to Manchester and a root, a personal tribute to the place that shaped so much of my vision and creativity.
​
DESCRIPTION - The root of Manchester lies deep within its lines, structures and shapes. The soul of Manchester lies deep within its nature. From the sky, Manchester appears rural with splashes of industry and human activity. The roads that lead into the city's body make web-like patterns that lead to smaller bodies of life. During the day, this vision is rich with greens and browns; at night, all you can see are electric yellows and blues.

UNDERWATER BALLET
Underwater Ballet was created after witnessing a former partner, a world-famous ballet dancer, rehearse. She moved with such grace and control that it looked like she was underwater, entirely absorbed in another realm. The artwork reflects that moment - seeing someone completely immersed in their craft, where every movement is intentional, slow, and purposeful. It’s about transcendence, focus, and the space between the body and consciousness, inspired by that brief glimpse into how dedication and presence can elevate someone beyond the ordinary. The piece captures both the beauty of the movement and the inspiration it gave me to see the power of total immersion in a creative practice.
​
DESCRIPTION - Underwater Ballet captures a state of total absorption, where movement and consciousness merge. It exists because I wanted to translate that otherworldly focus into a visual form.

BEFORE COLUMBUS
Before Columbus reflects on the vast, often overlooked civilizations that flourished in Africa long before European contact. The artwork portrays a young African child, masked as though an ancient artifact, surrounded by symbols of mysticism, power, and knowledge. Crystals, scepters, wings, and celestial motifs intertwine with rivers of blue blood, blades, and tribal references, evoking both beauty and struggle. Behind him, the Earth reminds us of Africa’s central role in human history. This piece draws from esoteric scriptures, Egyptian heritage, and ancestral wisdom, reminding us that Africa held thriving systems of agriculture, politics, and spirituality long before its narrative was reframed by Western colonization.
​
DESCRIPTION - Apparently, there was a civilisation on Earth long before any European influence. For thousands of years, people formed worlds within worlds. Unfortunately, my school curriculum forgot to enlighten me about the world before Columbus.

WONDERLUST
Wanderlust captures the complexity and chaos of urban life, a city both mesmerizing and overwhelming. Golden leaves, intricate patterns, and textures drawn from nature and global artefacts form a semi-abstract montage, hinting at hidden order within disorder. Two figures on either side, butterflies in hand, suggest moments of pause, reflection, and connection amid the constant motion. Streets, maps, and straight lines weave subtly through the composition, grounding the work in real-world experience while the abstract layers invite personal interpretation. The piece reflects the artist’s fascination with perception: how cities present themselves versus how they are truly experienced, and how we navigate beauty, confusion, and discovery. It is an exploration of desire, inspiration, and the layered, wondrous ways our minds engage with the world around us.
​
DESCRIPTION - At a glance, the city's magic is utterly seductive. It is shiny, sexy and decorated to attract. However, the closer you look, the face offers nothing more than broken dreams, conceptual living, and repetitive patterns in undefined lines.

EMPIRE
Empire explores the human journey through conditioning, society, and nature. Three figures represent stages of our existence: the first, pure and unconditioned, embodies authenticity and potential; the second, robotic and wired, reflects the influence of society, technology, and self-surveillance; the third reconnects with nature, detailed with textures, seeds, and flora, representing our natural state when freed from imposed constraints. The artwork examines how rules, ideologies, and collective structures shape perception and behaviour, forming an “empire” of human experience. It is a study of influence, awareness, and the possibility of transcendence, showing how we navigate between authenticity, conditioning, and reconnection to our natural and spiritual selves, ultimately revealing the layered complexity of existence.
​
DESCRIPTION - Three figures, born pure, shaped by rules, then returning to the untamed world of nature. A cycle of influence, conditioning, and rediscovery, where the human story unfolds between order and instinct.

ORGANISATION
Organisation explores the transformation that occurs when two people commit fully to each other, letting go of separate identities and past experiences to form a unified entity. It represents the balance of love, fertility, connection, and creation, showing how growth and legacy require surrender, refinement, and the willingness to become part of something greater than oneself. The artwork captures that transitional period where individuality is softened to allow for a shared vision, a cooperative existence, and the birth of new possibilities—whether through life, love, or creation itself. The figures are deeply rooted, mirrored in style and pattern, holding seeds and an egg, surrounded by flowers that symbolize fertility and growth. It’s a meditation on partnership, trust, and the careful alignment required to bring forth something enduring and deeply rooted.
​
DESCRIPTION - Two entities merge into one. Individual histories and identities dissolve to create a new, shared presence rooted in growth, connection, and the potential to bring something entirely new into the world.

SATIVA
Sativa captures the experience of shifting perspective through the lens of a natural, mind-altering plant. The artwork places a solitary figure floating within an expansive green environment, where leaves, stems, and abstract patterns of the sativa plant create a sense of endless growth, mystery, and possibility. It’s a world both familiar and alien, where the boundaries of space, time, and perception dissolve, and thought becomes fluid. The figure drifts through this immersive, textured landscape, interacting with the plant’s energy, absorbing its calming and expansive qualities, and becoming part of a rhythm larger than themselves. The artwork is a meditation on nature, consciousness, and self-reflection, showing how surrendering to the subtle magic of the world through observation, presence, and openness can alter the way we see life, creativity, and our own inner landscapes.
​
DESCRIPTION - Sativa drifts through a landscape where a plant itself bends, twists, and weaves, dissolving boundaries between self and environment. It’s a space of expansion and observation, where perception stretches, thought flows, and presence becomes its own kind of magic.

BAD APPLE
Bad Apple explores the tension within family and social structures, where conformity and individuality constantly collide. The artwork reflects the artist’s experience of feeling isolated within his family unit, navigating a world where some align with expectations while others must forge their own path. The abstract forms represent differing personalities, loyalties, and ideologies, with the central “bad apple” embodying resistance, independence, and the courage to define oneself outside collective norms. Through the exaggerated, oversaturated colors and unnatural tree ring, the piece highlights transparency, hidden dynamics, and the challenges of expressing authentic identity amidst pressure to conform, ultimately capturing the complexity, friction, and resilience inherent in human relationships.
​
DESCRIPTION - Abstract forms twist around a transparent, unnatural family, each gravitating toward the center yet resisting in its own way. One figure diverges entirely, shaping its own path, questioning conformity and revealing the tension between individuality and collective identity.

GIRL POWER
Girl Power is an exploration of manufactured femininity, where the world’s media, music, and entertainment industries create archetypes that diminish the true power of women. The artwork shows three plaster figures standing on a cliff, inspired by real-life pop culture icons, yet exaggerated, incomplete, and artificial. They are celebrated for visibility and influence, yet their personas are heavily sexualized, commercialized, and controlled, projecting a version of power that serves others rather than themselves. The figures highlight the tension between perception and reality, between societal expectation and individual authenticity. It examines how these manufactured icons shape young women’s ideas of strength and achievement, limiting their agency. Girl Power is both a critique and a reflection on how culture commodifies influence, enforcing ideals that distort self-expression, confidence, and genuine empowerment.
​
DESCRIPTION - Three women are commercially exposed to influence the girl. They present to the masses. They decorate the material world. They endorse the idea of stardom, lust and power. If you recognise these women, you may not empower the girl.
