6004, The Lady and the Worm, Paige Davey

$3,250.00

ARTWORK ID: 6004

CATEGORY: Portraits (a model release form from the subject must be supplied)

ARTIST STATEMENT:

In my work I have paired an elegant, mature version of myself with a delightful worm-on-a-string companion. The fuzzy friend is an enlarged version of the safely preserved toy from when I was little. My work displays my muddled identity as I navigate the world in my last year of being a teenager. Legally, I am an adult but I still resonate with feeling like a child as the juxtaposed pink invertebrate�scarf suggests. I hope that my art serves as a gentle reminder to reconnect with the innocence of our own youth, inspiring a renewed appreciation for the simple pleasures of life as we venture into adulthood.

MEDIUM: Oil on Canvas

ARTWORK DIMENSIONS (width x height): 610mm x 762mm

WEIGHT (approx): 1kg

ARTIST LOCATION: TUART HILL, WA
