Rope-A-Dope refers to a boxing tactic of being trapped against the ropes, allowing the opponent to throw tiring punches while the ropes take most of the force.

Rope-a-dope is also a life tactic of absorbing and processing situations before attacking them. Sometimes you need to sit back and take a few blows from the
universe, before finding the strength to stand back up and fight your best fight.

Inspired and empowered by this concept, the show consists of diary entry-style images that reflect on themes of fighting back, having a cry, fearing confrontation, and her personal representation of power. The show comprises original paintings of gouache on paper as well as acrylic on hand-cut plywood.
