| Abstract | In my Master of Fine Arts thesis exhibition, I dreamed I left the door open, I examine my own experiences of mental non-locality by pushing the points of tension between interior and exterior, forming a new psychological landscape. Access to this mnemonic world is built through recontextualizing the landscape as a metaphor, soundscape as a point of entry, and the figure as an archetype for stewardship. Layers of paint, sound, and contrasting imagery push and pull the viewer within the work, echoing the lens that results from the constant mental hum of motherhood management, and negating the importance of prioritizing one environment over another. |
