Artwork Description

weaving in and out of thoughts

I catch a glimpse of something small

i focus my attention there

although i couldn't tell you where

or what, exactly, that it is

that's got my brain all in a tizz

it's loud

but doesn't make a sound

and bright

although it's got no light

is it something serious?

or something more mysterious?

it's in me but I do not know

what's really going on below

the surface of my consciousness

it feels like it is bottomless

awake is where it's keeping me

asleep is where I want to be

Artist Bio

Tess Jetnikoff is an Australian artist, living on Bundjalung Country (Byron Bay).
Renowned for her contemporary fauvist oil paintings, Tess uses palette knives and intensely saturated colours to create dynamic, textured layers. These bold, and contrasting elements powerfully convey the ever-present themes of introspection, grief, acceptance, and female empowerment throughout her work.
