Home for the Holidays
Acrylic on canvas, Polymer clay
December 2023
10 in x 11 in
This piece explores returning to one's familial home for the holiday season, and how being back to a place one spent so much time in, but is now separated from can conjure feelings of loneliness, isolation, and intense nostalgia. The clay houses on the top serve to represent the monotony and conformity of the suburban neighborhoods that young adults often feel disconnected from once they move away.
