Emma Purkis and Lili Renfrey are emerging artists based in Boorloo, WA. The artists explore themes of identity, femininity and acceptance.
Emma’s themes of mental heath, memory and companionship, reflect on perceptions of mental illness and isolation through the mediums of sculpture and drawing.
Combining grotesque and aesthetic imagery, Lili explores the body and food through the female gaze, inviting the audience to engage with the work on a personal and subjective level.
