Tamara Perrett

Starting Bid: $1,200

This painting captures a figure’s knees in a bubble bath from the figures perspective. The close cropped composition highlights intimacy and presents the body as a site of comfort and self-acceptance.

Artist Bio: My practice explores self-reflexive eroticism and sexual exploration as gestures of feminine empowerment, positioning the body as a site of agency, pleasure, and cultural value through painting, drawing, sculpture, and video performance. Working from a perspective between a Female and Queer Gaze, I challenge the hetero-patriarchal Male Gaze and reframe feminine desire as autonomous, exploratory, and unapologetically empowered.
