"My body of work is based on the idea of memory and highlights how some moments within an individual’s life are remembered more prominently than others and some become vague or forgotten. Memory is known to be the glue that binds our mental life, the scaffolding that holds our personal history and the recalled experiences that makes it possible for us to grow and change throughout life. My piece portrays two landscapes, a forest on the left and a cityscape on the right with a female warrior at the centre. She is a fictitious character yet in a way represents myself, facing challenges bravely and with strength. No matter where people are from they will forget, make and hold onto memories."
