'Woman of 1000 Years' is the epitome to me of woman and self. She is something that transcends my own rational bounds but is a cruel reminder of a controlled and suppressed soul. Through utilizing the senses and exasperating them in the metaphysical space, the soundscape and sculpture reach a depth of time, age, humility and human contact.

She has been created to show a visible spiritual journey of rebirth, tribulations of womanhood and an afterlife that wasn't designed for her to rest peacefully, and how the process will continue without systematic change. From the different senses of being in the womb and the task of recreating my own interpretation of it - our one true safe space before we are thrust into the unprotected world, I tried to imagine the sounds, the vibrating watery bass and the warm closeness of everything. Sometimes in society we forget that every woman we critique and abhorrently sexualise was once a being floating around in the womb of her mother, her mother once too, and the cycle once again. 

This multi-sensory experience sustains a personal yet collective memory whilst simultaneously asserting a trapped female authorship of mythologies. She is exhausted yet she continues.’
