WHEN DOORS ARE LEFT OPEN (WDALO)
An adult nursery rhyme: the story of a little girl
and a boyish creature who enter a world of exoticism
and confusion.
STATIC SUSANNA
Waiting, in all its pathos and beauty. Inspired by
Artemisia Gentileschi’s Susanna and the Elders.
Created with wood found waiting on the streets of London.
NUDES
A simple love of nakedness – voyeurism turned
inwards, a sense of distance applied to that from
which there is no distance.
STRINGS
Domesticity. Strings attached. Report from
a life once-tied down. Project developed and
exhibited as a Rocky Mountain Women’s Institute Fellow.
BIRDS
Things with Feathers: Crows. Ravens. Jays. Sparrows.
swallows. Pigeons. The more common, the more cunning,
the more interesting. So many wings in infinite rhythms.
PANTOMIME
A little totemic theatricality that soaked through
the skin – a forgetting of real and not. A dream world.
COLLAGES
Whimsy and play, sumptuousness and incongruity,
revenge upon the icons of art and culture.
