PERSEPHONE
The Persephone series reimagines the ancient life/death/life myth as story of transformation, resilience and renewal. These works, incorporating symbiotic cultures of bacteria and yeast, reflect the cycles of becoming that flourish through periods of uncertainty, rupture and return.

The paintings hold a hopeful balance between darkness and bloom, vulnerability and strength, symbiosis and independence. They suggest that reinvention is not the abandonment of self, but the growth of knowledge, desire and freedom.
