"My body of work explores my personal experience with dyslexia. I created four different artworks to express different aspects, including those in the school environment. I tried to communicate this concept through a consistent colour scheme of green and red inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s ‘Night cafe’ and his further exploration into colour theory. together, these colours are highly contrasting, creating a jarring visual experience. This reflects the harsh reality of dealing with dyslexia in an unsupportive environment. I wanted to make the images slightly repulsive to reflect the damaging experience for many dyslexic students in school."
