Tallulah’s work navigates the brutal and tender terrain of the female body—its sexuality, its violence, and its persistent visibility. Through provocative, often unsettling imagery, she explores the tension between empowerment and objectification, revealing how even in moments of gore, distortion, or abjection, the female form cannot escape being sexualised.

Her paintings are filled with contradictions. Bodies are fragmented yet performative, blood reads as both pain and seduction, poses oscillate between dominance and vulnerability. Despite the violence depicted, Tallulah is acutely aware that the gaze—particularly the male gaze—remains intact. The viewer’s desire lingers, no matter how grotesque or strange the scene. This inability to escape sexualisation is not just a theme in her work, but a condition she interrogates relentlessly.

Her visual language blends the contemporary with the mythic, the sacred with the obscene, drawing on digital culture, fetish and fantasy.

Tallulah’s paintings demand to be looked at. They do not offer comfort, but confrontation. In them, she reclaims the body not by hiding it, but by forcing it to be seen on her terms—bloody, broken, powerful, and still, somehow, desired.
