Afraid of her own fairy tales Solo Exhibition

Paintings from the 2009 solo exhibition held at Libby Edwards Gallery, Melbourne.  This work draws particular inspiration from the dark and symbolic tales collected by the Brothers Grimm.  Imagery from everyday domesticity, nature and popular culture combine to make an intense material drama extending an invitation of escapism to the viewer.  Within each painting narrative threads link to create whimsical daydreams charged with touches of eroticism and undercurrents of insecurity.
