Reality - Hannah Wright
Description
Acrylic paint on scrap cardboard. 290mm x 420mm x 2mm
ARTIST STATEMENT: My work aims to portray and signify the isolation of homelessness. Painting onto cardboard represents a material often used by homeless people to keep warm and create comfort. I have also painted from the angle which means you can't see the subject's face, really isolating her from the world: she's given up and this is now her reality.
