Inspired by myths, archetypes and tropes, I source imagery related to the bloodline. Each storyline challenges the linearity of the bloodline in some way, coming together to construct a visual narrative of ancestry and relatedness.
The work draws upon traditional devices of storytelling such as the silhouette and motifs, along with employing a cast of ambiguous characters. This narrative is subverted through the use of patterning, repetition and mutations to hint that these narratives perhaps have their own ‘genetic code’". - Artists statement.
