Abigail Bronimann, a British artist born in 1999, explores narratives of life and death from a feminist perspective through a surreal approach. Her creative journey was profoundly influenced by the loss of her mother and a deep fascination with the afterlife.
Bronimann's art is characterised by morbid dreamlike landscapes, where distorted figures, characters, motifs, and key themes recur and interconnect, which she uses to reimagine our reality and convey her personal narrative. Drawing inspiration from religious and mythological figures, she adapts them to tell her own story and explores themes of identity, mortality, and spirituality.
In Bronimann's artistic universe, alongside her fascination for speciesism, she breaks down the idea of one's ‘body’ and its connection to the earth. Having previously explored the meat industry and the similarities shared between the objectification of the female form with agriculturally farmed animals, she aggressively tears apart the human form creating unearthly beings. Her work serves as a provocative commentary on the complexities of human existence and our relationship with the natural world.
