Her practice is shaped by coastal living, intuition, and a deep connection to process, texture, and emotional expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiving with ADHD and autism, Vicki began painting during a significant period of mental health struggle following years of anxiety, postpartum depression, and burnout. What began as a coping mechanism became a lifeline and an essential form of self-expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking intuitively through colour, movement, and layered texture, Vicki's paintings reflect shifting emotional states, becoming more expressive during periods of overwhelm. Through both paint and clay, Vicki creates work that invites stillness, connection, and honesty, while exploring the complexity of lived experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow Vicki on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vickipowerart\/\" title=\"Follow Vicki on Instagram.\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/jess_brushhour\/\" title=\"Follow Jess on Instagram.\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and check out her \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/vickipowerart.com\" title=\"Check out Vicki's website\"\u003ewebsite\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 'Mother' season of a woman’s life - a period often defined by caregiving, expectation, and the emotional labour of creating and sustaining life - this work reflects the quiet strain and pressure carried within intense motherhood. The flowers signify the beautiful life a mother creates, yet they recede; allowing presence, form, and the figure to hold the space. This piece speaks to both the weight and complexity of this experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vicki Power","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46098598297807,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/3073\/3007\/files\/VICKIP-3.jpg?v=1788743481","url":"https:\/\/recoveredfuturesshop.rfq.com.au\/products\/the-lush-vessel","provider":"Richmond Fellowship Queensland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
