Veils

Nets and curtains as materials of metaphor
interwoven membranes that hang
locating the inside and outside.
The thin line between domestic place and public space.
The surface that transforms what is seen from the ‘other’ side
distorting, hiding and revealing
through a play of darkness and light

‘HOME’

Film, installation and photography questioning safety, disclosure, transforming veils into objects and surfaces that play with notions of the idealised experience of ‘home’.

 

 

 

‘SELF’ PORTRAITS

Digital photographs recorded using a timer
Pixel points of light become lines as the wind blows through window and curtain
dragging, drawing, transforming

 

‘IN FEAR OF JUDGEMENT’

Domestic materials crafted with binding, stitch and weight
Suspended inside, the knives from the kitchen drawer
Tapestry vice, kitchen knives, net curtains, curtain weights, cotton thread and catgut
Installation first shown at ‘Dysembodied’, Joy Gallery, Ship Street, Chichester, 2010
