Know You

My work as a whole explores beauty and chaos as one and the same in the neurodivergent mind. I have ADHD and my art is a representation of what it's like to exist in my head. It's bright, busy and all at once, all the time.

 

In most of my work, I use abstract shapes and forms in acrylic paint and marker, layered into intermingling and overlapping points of interest, texture and colour. Through this, I aim to create a piece where you find something new each time you look at it.

 

In my texture pieces my art takes on a more wavy, serene personal, where everything melts into everything else. These pieces explore the idea seed of thoughts merging, passing and overlapping in my head. Like the surface of the sea, it can be hard to tell where one wave begins and the other ends.

 

It feels a lot like that with thoughts in my mind. I usually don't get to choose which my brain does, on one or another day, whether it'll be chaos or waves. In any case, I try to go with the flow. Whatever art I'm making, most of all, I wish to foster a sense of belonging, connectedness and familiarity for people, chiefly neurodivergent
