you get yourself to look like you’ve been crying in your selfies by hanging off the edge of the bed upside down

MediumOil, Wood, Ready to hangDimensions75cm (W) x 101cm (H) x 2.5cm (D)
This painting is from a series of work I exhibited in Adelaide, in 2025. The series was exhibited under the name “Clang”
The works in this series were tongue in cheek reflections of the artist. They show light hearted humour and staring at the sun sincerity. This body of work reflected on a recent car accident I had, putting me in hospital for six days and leaving with a bad heart, and my experience as an artist practicing for over a decade. Resulting with work on themes of anxiety surrounding issues of the self, the body, urbanisation, climate, and artistry.
This work is named after a poem it reads:
“You get yourself to look like you’ve been crying in your selfies by hanging off the edge of the bed upside down.
Crown touching the ground.
“We’re having drinks at _________ at 9 if you want to come around”
“I mean sure if that’s allowed”
You frown upside down.”
