My work, "Temptation," explores the beauty industry and the allure it holds for women, questioning the realism of pursuing perfection.
The piece features a canvas on a pine inner frame with a part-ceramic frame and a ceramic art necklace shaped like an eye.

A stylised female figure, adorned with a snake necklace and surrounded by apples and stylised floral elements, is depicted in a painterly style against a soft pink and white cloud-like background. Her outstretched hand delicately holds a single red apple, while butterflies flutter nearby, creating a dreamy, allegorical scene.
