FEAR(LESS) (2024)
Chapter four
FEAR(LESS) was born out of a deep admiration for a person very close to me. A young boy, who fearlessly takes on everything life throws at him. Conducts everything with a smile and a warm heart. 13 pieces of artwork to represent the date of his birth.
The collection springs out of my own fears and describes how I want to learn to fear less and live more. It is equally a play with words as with visuals. The collection tells the stories about fear obviously; but it also tells stories about love, passion, sorrow, courage and resilience. Sometimes the story is a fine line between life and death, between highs and lows, between intelligence and insanity. Layers of delicate emotion, memories and experiences a human can live to see, envisioned with inks, acrylics and pigments on sheer cotton and supported by strong wooden frames. The layers within each painting symbolize how people are shaped by things that happen in their lives and the collection aims to serve as a reminder to not let your past decide your future.
