'Eclosions of my studio practice' shown at The Slade School of Fine Art BA/BFA Degree Show.
Eclosion: borrowed from French éclosion, from éclos-, variant stem of éclore "to hatch (from an egg), emerge (from a cocoon)" (going back to Old French esclore, going back to Vulgar Latin *exclaudere, re-formation of Latin exclūdere "to bring out from its container, hatch from an egg"). To the progression of becoming and transcending the experience of becoming publicly is directly referential to gender but on a public level referential to the degree show itself and publicly unveiling work and thoughts produced over 4 years at the Slade School of Fine Art. Technology encroaches on the butterflies and the paintings themselves some outlines of lights make their way to be immortalised on can canvas outlasting the temporary sonic structures that stand in the space.
