The title of this show, Tall Tales, references that this body of work is a way of mythologizing myself. Tall tales are often told in a way that makes the narrator seem to have been a part of the story, which is aligned with the way I center myself and my experiences in my work. In some paintings, the female figure looms large in the landscape, subverting the trope of giant men in folklore traversing the land. In other paintings, cosmic elements like eclipses, stars, and umbras take the stage along with the figure.
