Artist: Hetty Douglas

"Narcissistic Tendencies" is a series of works painted during moments of erosion and expansion in Douglas's life. Through this exhibition, Douglas releases the "things that needed to be said.” Refusing silence, she transforms stored words and self-sabotaging narratives into a cleansing rebuilding process.

The artist describes this series as a window of opportunity to grab with guts and turn an exhausted lie into one of heartfelt storytelling.

Douglas’s work creates a gateway into the complexities of human reaction. Marrying abstract painting with intensely personal narratives, inquiries are both introspective and a universal reflection on reconciling her inner worlds/wounds.

A line from Gillian Welch abridges the heart of the exhibition; "but of all the little ways I’ve found to hurt myself, well you might be my favourite one of all."
