ISOLATION ARTWORK

All of this artwork was made during lockdown in the UK in 2020. It was a direct response to the feelings arising from the experience. I chose materials organically, based upon objects I already had in my home studio. None of the pieces were pre-planned. Some of the themes were connection, anxiety, hope and later, deeply personal loss. This artwork is a personal journal of experiences of life in isolation.
