A colour landscape image of three large mixed-media drawings, all in portrait orientation, mounted on a white wall in a gallery space. The first two drawings on the left side of the image resemble a diptych, mounted closely next to each other with the same dimensions. These drawings feature anatomical drawings such as a human digestive system, a blue uterus with tubes that transform into eels, floating eyeballs and brains as well as repetitive horse motifs. On the right side of the image, a lone large drawing features intricate drawings of a cluster of animals, mainly fish, at the bottom of a rectangular white structure with a square window near the top. A large fish jumps out of the mound, curving its body behind the white structure and spraying a red streak into the air. An undulating tubular form emerges from the mound, wraps around the fish’s torso, rolls in and out of the white structure through the window, and back into the mound. The tea-stain-coloured background has small grain-like shapes floating in the air and filling the space.Description
