Julia Platt, Winter in Spring (SINGLE SHOT 2024)

Self portrait. In cyclical women's work, our bleeding time is aligned with Winter. Wattle is a sign of early spring in Australia, I'm holding a daffodil, a sign of spring in the UK, where I come from. The yellow, pink and red speak to me. This feels like a radical act of taking up space, both in theme and as a self-portrait when still working on body acceptance.
