Good For A Girl Screen Print - 40 x 50cm

"For this piece I wanted to create something with a bit of attitude. Recently I’ve been looking at text and font from 70s and 80s signage and magazines, and am starting to incorporate it into my work. It’s also important to me that I don’t create the text painstakingly - I want it to be immediate and raw, especially when combined with this more delicate drawing style.

"The message behind this piece is something I think lots of people might have experienced if you have a talent or passion in a generally male-dominated field, like art. There’s this misplaced notion that you’re good, but you’re just being included as a favour or because of your gender, rather than because you have something real to say, or because what you produce is good.

"I think this piece is supposed to turn that sideways a little, and by wearing that short-sighted statement as a badge of pride I hope to highlight that art produced by people identifying as women is equally as important and note-worthy as art made by a man."
