Newton

Newton considers themes of eroticism, mortality, and the human condition. Her work often combines sculpture, drawing, and conceptual frameworks to create immersive and contemplative experiences. She employs meticulous craftsmanship, as seen in her use of bronze bas-reliefs, integrating form, texture, and narrative into each piece. Her artistic approach frequently engages with literary and philosophical sources, transforming texts into visual explorations of emotion, desire, and vulnerability.
