IDGIE KAGAN
Naarm-based artist Idgie Kagan (she/her) deconstructs the world around her to create works that reflect everyday experiences. From small intimate moments to those vast existential feelings, Idgie seeks to express them all. In her work, Idgie tries to find ways to communicate and create connections with others, hoping to reassure people that we are never alone. Her process involves digitally altering photographs through collage techniques as a reference for creating a painting. All aspects of life come up in Idgie's work, from joyful silly times to the darkest moments of grief. Her artwork combines many techniques, materials, colours and themes to find new ways of expressing everyday life experiences as a dyslexic gay woman.
