Pressure

Pressure
2025
acrylic on canvas
30 x 30cm

The word I received for this work was “pressure” and after considering the pressures I face in my own life, intergeneration trauma really stood out to me.
The pressure it places on our peoples is heartbreaking. For me personally, it can be so overwhelming and makes me feel not welcome or out of place. Through this work, I’ve tried to depict the feeling I get. The black circle represents myself and the black line work represents the “pressure” that surrounds me and feels endless.
