Cheeks
noun
Two parts of an arse.
This collection looks at finding positives in bad situations and the happy outcomes that can come from them.
Set against Italy’s landscapes and beyond, the paintings weave humour, myth, and play into everyday struggles—softening their edges and reminding us to find playfulness in hardship, curiosity in the ordinary, and smiles in the most unexpected places.
Trying to overcome a “shit” time is hard, and convincing yourself of the positive effects is even harder. These works don’t claim to solve anything, but they show how, with a change in perspective, one can overcome—or at least soften—a rough situation. And if not, this catalogue may be a distraction and bring about a few smiles.
