Artist Statement:

Jane is self-taught and takes a DIY approach to exploring her mediums.  She enjoys challenging the viewer to interpret the form, creating their own story.  Jane’s work explores ambiguity of dreams and forms, inflicting it on the audience with an air of mystery.  Jane’s sculpture is an abstract interpretation of the ancient European Sheela-Na-gig carvings.  They themselves hold mystery on their interpretation and intent.  Exploring the female anatomy with cheeky energy, she elevates the womb to a place where there is no shame.  This artwork explores the idea of being vulnerable and embracing sexuality after childbirth. It also speaks of trauma and living life with a disability.
