Of Inner Demons - Etienne Marquis
500x1020mm Unframed Oil. ARTIST STATEMENT:This piece is a commentary on society’s rejection of individuality in a world of binaries where anyone or anything that strays from the societal norm is ostracised and considered the other. It showcases how these external pressures and judgments can infest one's mind to birth self-hatred and give rise to inner demons that hold you back from your full potential and creative expression. And it was created using Oil Paints. ABOUT THE ARTIST: This piece is Shortlisted in the 2021 Sovereign Art Foundation Students Prize in Guernsey. Lucy May created this piece aged 19 while studying at the Guernsey College of Further Education.

1) Several pieces in this auction form part of a student’s active GCSE or A Level portfolio and the original must remain in the possession of the school until the examination has finished. In these cases, a replica piece will be provided to the buyer until it can be exchanged with the original piece. These pieces are identified in the individual Lot descriptions.
2) Several pieces in this auction are shortlisted for the Sovereign Art Foundation Students Prize Guernsey. Should a lot win either the Judges’ Prize or Public Prize in this national competition, it will automatically be enrolled in the Sovereign Global Students Prize; the buyer will have to agree for the piece to be available for display at the Global Students Prize Exhibition, scheduled to take place in Q1 2022. The Sovereign Art Foundation will organise the collection and return of the artwork in this instance.
