Completed after nearly a year and over 400 hours of work, Woman in the Bath XVI reflects a period of transition, renewal, and belonging. Painted after returning to Sydney following eight years in Europe, this piece embodies the emotions of rebuilding life from the ground up—like a seedling slowly finding its roots again.
The serene figure, enveloped by soft light and blooming flowers, symbolises growth, adaptation, and the quiet beauty of rediscovering home. Through this work, I wanted to capture that delicate balance between vulnerability and hope that accompanies every new beginning.
