Blenheim Walk
A Talk in the Gallery
Wednesday 28th March — 12.15pm
“My current art making practice explores the dilemma of what it means to inhabit a female body. I create installations and individual works that contain multiple layers of meaning; the work is subtle and surprising, disturbing and amusing. I alter and adapt ready-made objects that stand in as signifiers for the maternal body. I cast objects in unusual or unsuitable materials with the intention of suggesting an alternate reading of the original object. My intention is to promote in the viewer a complex response encompassing the cultural, political, social, historical and mythological agendas that inform our current perspective on motherhood and its role in contemporary society.”
