The thinking behind TROPHY WIFE: like other artists I draw upon personal experience to address, comment and express my feelings about pretty much everything on God's green earth. On this occasion I chose to explore the way things are presented to one as a child and the subsequent value placement on said things as a result. I focused specifically on my childhood and the introduction of Barbie as a female sexual representation, examining the impact of these ideas on adulthood. I might have taken a slightly cynical route.

The first TROPHY WIFE started life as a holiday project to decorate my office wall but subsequently turned into a piece of wearable art in the form of a brooch. As fate would have it, there is a nail art business in Melbourne, run by the very talented and creative Chelsea Bagan, called TROPHY WIFE NAIL ART.  The two TROPHY WIVES got together and a little collaborative marketing ensued.

The latest TROPHY WIFE was inspired by my favourite female artist,
¥o-Landi Vi$$er, from the South African rap rave group, Die Antwoord.
