Acrylic and Collage on Paper, 2025
If I Wanna be Hungover at a Baby Shower Then I Will Be takes its title from an overheard phrase spoken in irritation among friends. Its defiance is both humorous and poignant, encapsulating the shifting dynamics of adulthood and the diverging life paths navigated within a friendship group in their thirties.
The work reflects on the multiplicity of experiences at this stage of life: parenthood, marriage, divorce, financial independence, or returning to family homes.
By elevating an everyday remark, the piece captures the humour, honesty, and contradictions of navigating these milestones—where social rituals like a baby shower meet the persistence of youthful habits.
