Who is Justice?

His name is Prince Zorah and in this picture, I am re-framing the Greek goddess Lady Justice, who has often been used as a symbol of fairness in justice. As a proud dyke I feel this really presents who I am.

As a first-generation Chaldean Iraqi who grew up in Ontario, Canada, I investigate themes related to multigenerational resilience and the disconnect between body and home in relation to nomadism. This has resulted in my experimentation in colour and texture involving various mediums, facilitating my understanding of the universe we live in.
