The Diary of Dorian Gray 1898-1908

Part of the 3 person show 'Not to be missed' at Sanat Gallery


Perhaps the biggest challenge and labour of love for this show was writing the Diaries of Dorian Gray (1890 and 1898-1908 respectively), from the perspective of protagonist Dorian Gray as he lived through the events mentioned in the classic novel The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. To make this work, I endeavoured to exercise empathic writing skills as well as those of watercolour and mixed media illustrations. These are works that bring together the worlds of literature and art and need to be read with concentration to be experienced fully.
