The Box

The Box is a personal exploration of my artistic identity, designed as a 3D shadow box that incorporates inspiration from carnival themes. This model captures the vibrant, layered, and playful core of my creative practice, combining elements that reflect my passions and the dynamic energy that drives my art. Depending on where the viewer is positioned, a dominant colour is seen. Each side of The Box represents a unique facet of my work and artistic personality.

  • Pink: The wave of inspiration.

  • Red: My passion for creature design.

  • Blue: My ability to flow between conceptual, realistic and a playful style.

  • Green: The significance of nature and technology in my life and art.

At the heart of the box sits a representation of myself, with each side lit to invite viewers to peer inside my artistic world. The piece was crafted using hand-cut paper visuals and built-in lighting.

The Process

Each part of the work was handcrafted over the span of 40 hours. I experimented with paper, lights and 3D construction to encapsulate an intriguing view into my artistic persona.
