​Artist’s Statement

When I was thinking about this artist’s statement I was tempted to make something of the ambiguity of the title along the lines of the literally screwed up image and a figuratively, lockdown induced psychologically damaged artist. Far from being scared by months of the Melbourne lockdown, I was fortunate to have endured it with relative ease. The truth lies somewhere between attempting to find an interesting approach to tackling a self-portrait and being no more ‘screwed up’ than usual.
