                                                      The artist starts a painting without a particular idea in mind, just an image. Trying not to question the image, but to let it take shape. “ When the painting is complete” is when the viewer is allowed into her subconscious. How we see ourselves, and how we imagine our place in the world. The constant struggle for identity, beauty and a place in the natural world can be quite unnatural. Images of our physical and spiritual selves have been aggressively twisted lately.What a person considers as beautiful can be challenged by what the world is being told is beautiful. We are becoming a society where beauty and life has only one look. Maybe this is narrowing of ideals survives because of our desperate need to fit in. So, what happens when we can’t fit into the narrow slot of what is normal and beautiful? Her recent work plays with the concept of identity. Zuill present various body types, forms of clothing and iconic body adornment to imply stories, histories, and sometimes, confusion. Some of the images contain contradictory symbols, which are culturally very different. Other ideas dwell on historic importance, cultural acceptance, and class systems.
