My
crocheted outfits skirt the border of reality as a way of thinking
about bodies, bodies that buckle under the strain of difference, and
draw their lifeblood from it. Initially very much anchored in the real,
the shapes became freer, stranger, and at the same time more
concentrated. The quaintness of the medium, its look and sensory
qualities, make a direct link to a lived (and imagined) past, as do the
colours and tonalities chosen. Along with the scale of each piece, which
relates directly to a child's body, the viewer is stirred to recall (if
not recoil), reconnect, but also discover.
