Incubate - Chicken

from £1,000.00

Oil on canvas, measuring 59cm x 43cm.

Girl with Chicken is the first in the series of Incubate.

This series is about me learning to let go. The chicken represents me as mother hen: protector and nurturer, still trying to incubate my baby, while the girl no longer needs to stay close to the nest. Instead, the chicken becomes a rather cumbersome and silly hat, no longer useful and surplus to requirements. The painting is my way of processing the feeling of letting my daughter go, or, as the saying goes, letting her fly the nest.
