This piece is part of the 'Subject of Desire' collection looking at self-love and acceptance. It is a shift of focus from previous works, which were about voyeurism and sexuality. I started to look at self in the homoerotic, and the desire to be desired. I chose to work with oil paints because of the rich and vivid colour and depth captured. Also, I have recently been working on recycled wooden surfaces, because I enjoy the element of raw mediums. Artists I was inspired by and looked at regarding this piece are George Michael, Caravaggio, Jochen Klein and Bill Lynch.

I started painting self-portraits because it gave me an opportunity to expose areas of my life that needed revealing and healing. With time, these self-portraits slowly started to incorporate different elements of everyday life. By forgoing realistic proportions, the focus shifts to expressing varying mental and emotional states of mind. I find challenges and joy in returning to those moments many times, as emotion is fluid, and painting is thus a reflection of the journey. Art is, for many, a cathartic process: from hope, to revelation, and finally a grand release when a breakthrough is shared with the audience. Therefore, choice to use acrylics throughout my work is a measured one. It conveys the message in layers, textures, growth and mistakes, and all of which is shared with the viewer.
