She's Not There

There is an old Zombies song called “she’s not there” and I liked the idea of how often the girls I see are distracted by the “reality” that they live through their phones rather than engage with the real world and “real people” I also did this to explore the effect of negative space and initially where the stars are was a girl shaped hole. I had another piece with a similar negative space and it also wasn’t enjoyed so I added a form into the space and it became very popular. The message this gives is slightly different from the original intent but I do like the girl among the stars aspect to it .There is an element of loss but also an element of not losing too.
