Sonia White’s practice centres on vibrant surreal portraits, brought to life with bold acrylic and oil paints. She champions the enduring value of traditional painting techniques, believing that in an age increasingly dominated by digital art and AI, the craft of creating with oils and brushes on canvas holds a timeless significance. Through her work, White addresses the underrepresentation of surrealism in both local and global art communities. Her art pushes back against modern technological trends, focusing instead on the fundamental themes of human relationships and their interactions with the world and its other inhabitants.
