This scene is inspired by a local cafe. When I sit in the cafe I observe women enjoying the company of their friends of even a quiet moment of peace against a backdrop of greenery and mosaic. In this work, the scene is fictionalized with an exaggerated sense of pattern and activity surrounding the figure who is immersed in her own thoughts.
This artwork was painted during my Incubate Residency in early 2019. It was part of my exhibition, Malika/Queen of the Home at Bankstown Arts Centre and at 'Herland, in Search of a Female Utopia' at The Women's Library in Newtown (2019, curated by Freya Black). This large painting has not previously been made available for purchase by the public.
