This piece is an investigation into the complex nature of identity. Today we live in a world that requires us to define ourselves with straight lines and suits, however this conformity overlooks the individual wairua (spirit) that is so crucial to identity. Well Suited to the Beach  challenges this notion through a surrealist lens, using a bizarre composition to encourage viewers to investigate their own internal conflict between societal and personal identity.
