Rotten Fruit, 2024

Acrylic on Canvas

Rotten Fruit (2024) is a piece dedicated to summer, encapsulating the essence of my kitchen on a sweltering day, where humidity hands heavy and insects buzz amidst the warmth. I have always loved the heat and I thrive with my shoulders out and my feet dangling in the water. This artwork delves into the very soul of its subject, capturing the beauty and decay fundamental in the scorching Brisbane summer days, inviting reflection on the cyclical nature of life and the enduring allure of warmth amidst decay.
