A delicious exhibition by
Careshia Esperanza & Gideon Nel
welcome to our small part in this jungle
Life is a wild ride - an unpredictable journey where we grapple with love, loss, and the meaning of it all. It’s a jungle out there, as they say, where only the bold survive.
In this exhibition, I, Careshia Esperanza, celebrate the vibrant chaos of life through my love of wild, wonderful colours and playful exploration. Beneath the fun, I ask deeper questions about navigating womanhood in today’s world—the expectations, the “do’s and don’ts,” and the unspoken rules imposed on us.
You’ll notice recurring symbols in my work: eyes, nipples, genitalia, and monsters. For me, sticking to traditional depictions of people feels limiting and, frankly, a bit self-absorbed. That’s why I’m drawn to creating creatures - monsters, if you will. They’re unbound by societal norms, free to exist as they are: wild, quirky, and unapologetic.
Below, you can explore my available works.
