"By presenting nuns as complex characters with desires, I invite viewers to reconsider their perceptions of faith," Joyce explains. "I want my art to reflect the complexities of the human mind and relationships, where pleasure and pain, love and loss, exist side by side."
"Each medium has unique qualities [... ] For instance, I love the vibrancy of acrylics for the background, but I also enjoy the softness of watercolours, which allows for delicate colour transitions when depicting objects," she says. Contrasting light and shadow is important, to make certain elements pop while keeping others subdued and enhancing the overall mood of the piece.
"I want my art to feel both familiar and otherworldly, inviting viewers to explore the complexities of desire, faith, and the human experience."
"I believe art should get people talking," she says. "My goal is to create pieces that not only catch the eye but also encourage people to see the world around us in new ways."
