The Impulsive is a collection of prints made from natural forms and fruits transformed through a process of digital manipulation. The body of work deeply explores the haunting journey behind eating disorders, from the mental and physical impact disorders can have to the long path of recovery. What begins with a healthy fruit once full of life, slowly becomes decayed and digitally disturbed to make the subject appear ‘beautiful’ again.

This digital alteration represents the influence social media can have on society and how these transformations can make one chase a distorted beauty that doesn't exist. The process of organic to digital was created from fruits and repeatedly manipulated through digital art, to represent the ritualistic ways eating disorders can have on someone, as well as the image becoming so enhanced, that the original is no longer recognisable.
