Collection: caitlin truman-baker

for graphic designer caitlin truman baker the design process is a journey through her subconscious. using the female archetype as a central point, the plettenberg bay based designer explores a visual fantasy that mirrors her inner processes and pathways to self enlightenment. a collection of portraits reflect a journey towards self realization using symbolic imagery from the subconscious. the result is evocative of a strangely surreal landscape in which a personality gradually evolves and breeches barriers personal, physical, mental and emotional to emerge into a state of awareness. mythical beasts, flora and fauna are imbued with allegory. the snake, a symbol of life force, can be seen woven through turbans, slipping through mouths and dangling like jewels. birds, breaking free from the confines of boxed hearts and cluttered heads, soar through cloudless skies carrying messages of hope and freedom. water, the universal pool of emotion, once a recurring dream for the artist, laps precariously around the foot of a chair or is the sea in which she finds herself drifting alone.
