Talisman III
Oil on canvas
I have always held a fascination for lipstick, and its transformative power. Equal parts talismanic, equal parts a means for expression, it is also a fitting symbol of the performative aspects of femininity and self-presentation. Minimalist in its composition, Talisman III pays homage to one of the ways in which we might simultaneously conceal and reveal aspects of our identity.
