“The female figure as a central image is consciously placed as an endorsement of female victory—almost as a totemic trophy of the self for the self—to reinforce the embodiment of the female spirit as a vital axis to life itself. In my representation of the woman, I iconise the female figure by diagrammatising her body—thereby removing the palpable corporeality so that it does not become a commodity for lustful consumption. My art is a commentary about life through my existence
