My Lino Ladies series plays with the interactions between figures in spaces between spaces, crushing and contorting nude figures into uncomfortable polygon prisons, symbolic of the lived experiences of many women navigating their interpersonal relationships. As women, we are oftentimes expected to mold ourselves to fit the expectations of others, confining ourselves into metaphorical boxes for the comfort of others and at our own expense. Linoleum was cut into a series of modular prints and rearranged to make many compositions.
