Felicity's artworks are based on personal experiences of the world and these pieces were originally conceived after viewing thermal imaging of her father’s brain cancer. Felicity was drawn to the vivid colours and beauty of the imagery, juxtaposed by the reality of such a deadly disease.
It prompted further research into other health conditions including her own, along with mental health, personality disorders addiction and the ageing brain .
This artwork addresses the ageing brain and the slow fading of parts of the brain as Dementia takes hold. PET image.
