View a range of work from a series of exhibitions showcasing some of my early interactions with subjects in rural and disadvantaged communities whilst carrying out medical outreach services.
Queens is a print series using copper and zinc etched plates with rosin aquatint overlay. The subjects are notable women throughout history whose advocacy was underappreciated by their contemporaries.
These exhibits showcase my evolving interest in print-making and digital media as well as my very early work with line drawing. The work centres around socio-cultural identity: my dual identity as a medic and artist, and how this informs my study and expression of my subjects and subject matter.
