Petrina Hicks is an Australian artist who creates large-scale photographs drawing from mythology, fairy tales, and historical art imagery to re-frame the contemporary female experience.
Animals and females often appear together to represent aspects of psyche and identity, alluding to the complexity of female identity and the sentience of animals.
The porous boundaries between human and animal states and the affinity of females and animals are central to her work.
