Lovers Eye II
Joy’s works are a love letter to materiality, employing ancient techniques, with contemporary concepts. However, the works are far from being archaic, as what she creates is an artful manipulation of form and narrative, which make the works magnificently modern, yet timeless.
The work is emotive, socially and politically loaded. Each piece carved into existence stands to commemorate something or someone, to hero an emotion, a moment or theory.
