Amy Wiggin | I Want to Eat and Sleep with You

What is it to be a woman in today’s developed world? Is it important if you are partnered, married, single, childless or child free? What type of partner is right for you? And do you need one?.....These are all questions I ruminate and respond to within my practice.

Primarily routed in printmaking, Amy Wiggin’s practice is often narratively based. Using raw printmaking techniques including monotype and lithography as well as paintings to illustrate often highly sexually charged, erotic and romantic scenes.

Through the use of bold characters interwoven with text, Amy uses colour, wit and humour to draw her viewers into a collaborative dance with the protagonists. Creating a visual ‘propaganda’ of sorts subverting traditional narratives on womanhood, online dating and gender roles.

Amy seeks to ask questions not only of society but of ourselves. How do we see ourselves within these structures, and are they real?

At the heart of her practice is a quest to understand, to be understood, to educate and to empathise. To create a space for dialogue and to redraw our past histories.
