In Enough Bared, I explore the emotional struggles of feeling inadequate within my own body, employing dark warm tones to create an intimate atmosphere that highlights the tension between self-perception and authenticity. The work depicts the female form that is both relaxed and disjointed, representing the restlessness of my human experience. This work was produced during a time where I felt the weight of societal expectations slowly distorting self-worth. I encourage viewers to reflect on and challenge the ingrained narratives surrounding self-acceptance and value. Tess Hagan Mooloolah QLD Enough Bared oil and acrylic on board
