...to evoke a world of fairy stories and dreams. I know this because I read the catalogue. Another clue is one of the first elements in the room, top and left in the picture above, the crow wearing a fine gold chain - because nothing says 'fairy tale' like a dead crow.
These lines and the very pharaonic eye-rings (aren't they) made my morning! I like her TV-tower SF-sculptures, it's like visiting Berlin Alexander Platz but just to say how I hate themed exhibitions with a message oktruated into one's stubborn mind, hoping one might get it (I often refuse for exactly that reason); why can't they just show the art and let one decide for oneself what one thinks of it, if anything? Rhetoric Q.
The Vane Women made me think this was a Sayers allusion but at seeing the Vane Pub I thought this is possible, possibly a themed thing too but just maybe not after all and only an innocent pub selling beer or something, the food sounds (however food does that) decent enough if they really buy local produce. I keep marvelling at my luck with a real, not expensive, farmer's market in this town; never ate so well for so little!
