I met my girlfriend when I was not looking for love but it found me. Rather, she found me. In this piece I explore vulnerability. The bed is a personal place of comfort which you choose to share. I depict my girlfriend and I in a bed, sharing this space, exemplifying the scary, yet exciting process of getting to know someone intimately. Knowing what they fear and what makes their eyes light up. This two way process means that you also have to be ready to share a part of yourself. This bed represents us revealing and concealing parts of ourselves as we open up to one another.
