Self-portrait

This is a self portrait I made specifically for the Street View Exhibition. It is a contemporary take on Raphael's 'Sistine Madonna'. I have depicted myself staring out the window, my head literally in the clouds, in a time when being outside seemed like a distant memory, already in our third lockdown. The painting was presented through the bars of a window, playing with the idea of looking out and looking in, with windows reflected in the eyes.

Raphael's inspiration and a detail of the windows in the eyes.

Small oil paintings and watercolours

Alongside my project work I have been painting to keep myself focused and calm, a way to improve my mental health. I find elements of silence and stillness come into much of what I do, even if there is not that aim in mind.
