An exploration of loss and anger from the feminine perspective.

 

Inspired by slavic folklore I develop the character of the Rusalka as a medium for opening conversations about the lack of justice for female survivors of violence, the loss of self through trauma and the face of female anger. 

​

This project is in it's infancy and she may also be evoked to consider the ecocide imposed by the anthropocene.
