Forced From Home:
These seven paintings frame my telling of the story of the recent North Africa and Near/Middle East Wars. Blue Window reflects on the safety of some and the peril for others in Assad’s capital. She Said pays homage to the bravery of women during the Libyan Civil Wars. The Seamstress tries to repair the seemingly irreparable. The Beach reflects on the world’s deadliest migration route. While the triptych Collapse suggests ‘to the victor the spoils’, and angry gods and powerful women suggest otherwise.
