Concept

The interpretations encounter political statements or disperse cultural observations; correspondence that is not immediate but perhaps depends on the contingencies of travel. Subversive systems of posting and collecting dialogue create the emergence of new narratives that are shared and reacted upon through hybrid texts, images and temporary ownership. Show cased as a touring exhibition at Broadwalk Arts, Bristol then at The Willesden Gallery, London, the works continue to explore language, visual interchange and systematic dialogues.

'My Last Duchess' Audio and Text



















“My Last Duchess” is an audio/visual installation developed from familial, military, and commercial relics surrounding personal relationships during World War II. By re-enacting (re-interpreting?) the communicative roles of spouses and their mediated environments, I am investigating how western structures support or deflect a time of war.
