TanOren’s practice is grounded in her lived experience as a disabled woman, and is shaped by the intersection of personal history, identity, memory and emotional nuance. Working across paint, mixed media, writing and film, she explores the complex relationship between chaos and structure within internal and external landscapes. Her work is interconnected, and each stroke forms part of a broader cohesive narrative. This layered approach allows her to express the dissonance and harmony that coexist in perception, inviting deeper reflection on the emotional and psychological dimensions of being.
Through a multidisciplinary lens, she seeks to create work that is both deeply personal and universally resonant, offering moments of recognition, vulnerability, and connection.
