After Spring is a mixed-media artwork that reflects on Western cultural constructs of idealised femininity and beauty, referencing Renaissance works by Sandro Botticelli. Inspired by Botticelli’s Primavera, which symbolises spring, fertility, and youth, After Spring presents a single figure derived from The Calumny of Apelles to represent truth, contrasting traditional depictions of femininity.

The central figure points to a 3D model of a scallop, alluding to The Birth of Venus, but unlike the idealised scallop in Botticelli's work, this version reveals veins and the digestive system, representing the tension between mythologised beauty and bodily reality. Flanking panels depict ripples that symbolise how these cultural ideals persist, influencing contemporary views on femininity that also impact medical representation. The work was exhibited alongside Time is Topological, a piece exploring non-linear conceptions of time and the historical perception of women's bodies.

Together, these works interrogate the enduring impact of cultural narratives on contemporary understandings of gender, identity, and the human body.

After Spring forms part of the Mourning Story exhibition.
