Unfamiliar Skin 2006
"...complex narrative associations that alternately move between myth and autobiography, journalism and fairy tales. Buttoned shoes, billowing gowns, and corsets are made of waxed surfaces dripped with yellow and red stains and encircled with clouds of thin, unkempt hair. But these sculptures are not just anthropological observations of how social constraints and expectations can be observed in the conventions of women's and children's clothing..."
