Portrait nominee

I drew inspiration from the paintings of the Dutch Golden Age in creating these series. There is more than meets the eye in these portraits. I portrayed the women in a staged setting.The combination of these works tells their story of sexual abuse in a subtle way through the use of abstraction, suggestion and symbolic elements. Hidden secrets and clues to convey an unsettling feeling that they appear to be left fending for themselves in the looming darkness. Hesitant to speak up.
