Lullaby
Brittany/Andrew Forrest

Through her work, Brittany/Andrew Forrest seeks to resolve the conjecture of defense mechanisms that fuel the alienation symptomized by absurdity. Questioning, how this fragmented discord influences our psychology. Foregrounding the seriousness invested, yet misplaced, in an arbitrary world.

Based in London, ON, Brittany/Andrew Forrest (she/her or he/him) is a queer Ontario-based surrealist artist and author. She focuses on character development through drawing, sculpting, mold-making, and wording that stretches away from traditional approaches to represent the tale of her estranged identity. Her study of the body began as a young child through performing arts. Rigorous observational skills transitioned into a thriving art and writing practice penetrating all facets of the being. Forrest now focuses on dissecting human exchange and perception to find correlations within the interplay between bodies by accessing memories, dreams, the imagination, and layers of consciousness. Lullaby is her graduate thesis exhibition.
