Figure & Bust (2006-2013)
This series began after I listened to a radio discussion about the history of busts and how likeness and representation were manipulated to continue the symbols of power and authority from one legacy to the next. From this I developed a series of male and female busts exploring gaps between individual and the iconic using a range of personages and styles. I continued the series using drawings elaborating the absurd, profane and stereotypical.
