Gloria’s practice investigates the self and the ways that identity is formed through desire. Her work is a playful exercise of dissolving and remodelling of the self, navigating the space between fantasy and reality.
Gloria’s work is multidisciplinary, mostly inspired by dance and vintage ephemera, she explores pattern and rhythm as form; loops, flow, shapes and repeats are key elements in her work.
Drawing heavily from dance, collage and sculpture, Gloria’s studio practice spans from thrifting for vintage objects or digital material, to collaging, drawing and dancing; allowing for a deeply felt and researched, ever evolving complexity to the work.
