About the artist

Avatar for Violet Costello

My works are often comical. But they also raise unsettling questions about our place in the world and the formation and meaning of cultural identities and stereotypes. I am interested in the complexities of the human condition — our quirks and fears, our moments of loneliness and joy, our ways of moving, identifying and representing ourselves — and inspired by the child’s world of play, where reality readily gives way to, and confuses with, imagination.
