ARTISTS STATEMENT
I grew up in a naked house. Rather, two. Nudie runs with my Dad getting out of the bath, a race to give my stepmum a soggy hug first. My Mum and her single friends comparing nipples, whose had withstood breastfeeding the most resiliently? Being gifted 'Feral Sheryl', the Barbie knock-off who sported a bush and nose piercings. Being a part of this project has allowed me to connect with my body in a way I feel reflects the way I was brought up. Figuring out how I want to express myself when I can't do so with clothing, with conversation, or with daggy pop-culture references.
