Gossip emerged from a spontaneous play of inks, acrylics, and veiling—marks made without intention until three figures seemed to step forward from the abstraction, mid-conversation, as if they had always been waiting there to be noticed. What began as colour and gesture revealed itself as a tableau of human exchange: the lean-in, the shared secret, the ripple of curiosity that travels between people.
This piece explores how stories move—how we pass meaning from one person to another, sometimes lightly, sometimes with consequence. The animated silhouettes capture a moment where communication becomes performance, connection, and spectacle all at once. Their exaggerated forms and vivid colours heighten the humour of the scene while pointing to something timeless in human nature: the urge to interpret, embellish, and relay the world through conversation.
Though initially unplanned, Gossip became a visual reminder that art, like dialogue, often arises unexpectedly—through noticing, through attention, and through the stories that surface when we allow the work to speak first.
