This Too Shall Pass , 2021
graphite, Charcoal, ink on various paperstock, digital projections

The experience of emotion is inexorable. This Too Shall Pass is a commentary on transient states of mind. Its title, a Persian adage, reflects on the ephemeral nature of the human condition. This notion of ephemerality is explored in tandem with the fluidity of emotions and the spectrum upon which they exist. I explore this through an assortment of drawing mediums and materials, each representing a specific emotional state, whilst the layering of my work in a time-based sequence, emphasises the notion that the emotions co-exist symbiotically. The continuously changing imagery further elucidates their temporality.
