Oil painting on canvas, 64 x 44cm
‘A jester who laughs through the ache,
Let’s silence perform, in his wake.
Each smile he defends,
But quietly bends -
A truth he can barely fake.’
Laughter Is My Juggling Act, 2025
64 x 44cm
Oil on Canvas, with a satin varnish finish
Blue, wood frame
In 'Laughter Is My Juggling Act', I reflect on the fragility of humour and the quiet tension beneath performance. Abstract, biomorphic forms hover between balance and collapse, embodying the absurdity of control within chaos. Through this suspended theatre of shapes, I reveal laughter as both a mask and mirror - a gesture that conceals as much as it exposes.
