Offering #1, from the series ‘A Feast for the Lost’, explores the confectionery trap of fairy tales, where sweetness functions as invitation, distraction and warning. A brightly iced doughnut offers the familiar promise of comfort and indulgence, but its surface has already been claimed by carrion beetles. The work belongs to a wider body of paintings exploring food as bait, the forest as a place where ordinary rules become unreliable, and the suspicion that anything offered too freely may carry a cost.
