AWJ18 (Nosy Neighbour)

Posted on december 12, 2023maart 26, 2025


Year: 2021
Size: 120 x 50

Material: Glue, Beads, Stones, Acrylic paint

Description:
This textured mixed-media piece humorously exaggerates the features of a woman who just can’t resist peeking into other people’s affairs. Her elongated, three-dimensional nose—comically over-the-top—stretches outward, symbolizing curiosity (or nosiness) that knows no boundaries. Her wide, sideways-glancing eyes add to the expression of sly intrigue, as if she’s mid-gossip or eavesdropping. Dangling from her ears are long, ornate earrings made from jewelry pieces and beads, adding flair and personality. The use of sand and stones gives the artwork a rich, tactile quality, enhancing its playful yet symbolic nature. Bold, textured elements bring the character to life, making her not just a figure in the artwork but a relatable (and humorous) reflection of those who just can’t mind their own business.
