\r\n

BAY’s work represents her experience with mental health and identity. Acrylic paints are marbled and react with gel mediums to represent the unpredictable symptoms of anxiety and depression. She incorporates intricate line work to represent topography on a map giving the impression of islands, and Kupesi (traditional geometric motifs) as a reference to her Polynesian ancestry.

\r\n

 

\r\n

Her abstract expressionist paintings are a metaphor for the isolating feeling mental health symptoms often result in, making you feel as though you are alone on an island.
