In early 2008 I edge my way into a new definition of my art. The blatant provocation in GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS is indicative of the desire to relinquish boundaries and censorship, and to explore all areas of my life’s experience. In this case, the woman who at first is shocking, becomes an object of sympathy, whilst the wandering and “zombified” girls could signify regret, unresolved griefs, who pace and pace blindly and monotonously through her life.
