‘Like feathers they can form a body, a whole, a bird, but separately they become flexible, light and no longer a bird but a subject themselves. In this time that I have been slowing down and reflecting on the images of the women in paintings that have come before, what it means to be part of this bigger whole. Female nudes historically are passive; I feel in my paintings I am reclaiming an agency.’
