THE CONTORTIONIST

Jill Lougheed

Brightly coloured acrylic painting on canvas depicting a semi-reclining nude woman with vacant eyes staring out of the canvas. Her body is wedged within the frame of the canvas with a rather laissez-faire yet seductive attitude. This painting asks viewers to consider the ability women have to adapt and contort into various roles and expectations of themselves and others.
