The Birth of Pegasus (2021-2022)
In the Birth of Pegasus series (2021-2022), I reimagine Greek mythology to highlight the relationship between classical depictions of women and cultural recognition of shared imagery. Set within the Gulf of Mexico's surreal seascape following the British Petroleum Spill in 2010, these prints depict the birth of Pegasus and Chrysaor, represented by oil and gas company logos. These works reconstruct aesthetic narratives in a way that points to the complexity of climate change and the oppressive visual representations and overlooked power of women in Western aesthetics.
