Since her early childhood, Rebecca developed a fascination with the
human figure, especially that of the female form. She works with oils
and other media exploring paint through form and vice versa, as a way
of working through her own notions of self and other, of image and
meaning.
Images of women have become central to Rebecca’s work and she is
particularly drawn to them due to the fact that our culture is so
oversaturated with ideas of female perfection, with body image and
beauty ideals often being discussed. Images of feminine beauty both capitivate and terrorize her, but
through painting she is able to express and begin to resolve the way in
which they intrigue and disturb her. The ideas become vehicles through
which she can engage with paint, like points of departure into zones of
feeling, of colour, texture and surface.
