Abstract

The work includes a variety of approaches varying from the use of images selected from the media and found objects to objects transformed or manufactured by the artist. A major formal concern is the integration of collage or assemblage with the painted surface. Subject matter is drawn from persona] preoccupations with biographical details, womanhood and social and historical context. The format and scale of the works vary and are determined by the content. The practical body of work is accompanied by a short dissertation which discusses the nature of the formal mode used and its relationship to the content of the work.
