My artistic practice is engaged with fantastic, surreal storytelling and children’s nursery rhymes. The stories read to me as a little girl have become a main symbolic reference that I have fashioned into my own illustrated imagery, thus creating my own imaginary world. I have designed a cast of crazy, manipulated creatures to populate these stories. The work is intentionally an excess of colour and gesture, suggesting a sense of hyper-stimulation or hysteria.
