Birth of War

"Birth of War" pastel on paper studies for series “Sexual Violence & the Consequences of War”. Inspiration by making of documentary films in war zones, working in pastel on brown paper captures an earthy, grittiness that enhances subject matter and surface of the work. A fragility in the skin of brown paper and the body of the women, the birth of a war child, we never seem to learn from the consequences of war and conflict, history repeats itself...the art mirrors
