About the Artwork:
In this piece, I wanted to explore painting and artmaking as a form of transformation. As the ear is pierced, so is the canvas, connecting idea and process. The ‘Moon Version’ refers to moonlight informing the colour palette and the use of silver goldwork bullion in the embroidery. – Marek Osedowski
