mythos

The Mythos body of work draws from stories, in particular mythohistories, folklore, and graphic novels, to query figures central to these narratives which operated in queer and trans spaces and interrogate notions of narrative and 'the heroic'. ​The notion of “medium” is central to this work. I utilize media as a visual pun, exhibiting slippage between the perceived, depicted and tangential. The multiplicity of media in my work exists to challenge visual expectations and investigate the queer mark-making approaches.
