"An Angry Rabbit Without a Carrot" explores the endless possibilities of mark-making while juggling themes of childhood nostalgia and adolescence. These elements serve as a backdrop, highlighting the complex interplay between innocence and idealism.
To create this piece, I began by laying the canvas on the floor and soaking it in a mix of water-based materials, allowing the different mediums to bleed into each other. Once the canvas was thoroughly saturated, I stretched it and added on its metal frames to both contain and extend the painting.
In response to the resulting marks, I added oil paints, focusing intently on the interaction between myself and the canvas, listening to its voice. Throughout this process, I infused little moments of my subconscious with doodles as if pulled from an old notebook - encouraging a playfulness to the surface.
