Formative Years
This artwork also deals with childhood memories and access to those memories. I have used various devices, such as zippers, layering and tears to allow, impede or cause hesitation in accessing those memories.
The artwork is presented as keepsakes in small, hinged and clasped, glass-topped boxes reinforcing the idea of retained memories and their accessibility or inaccessibility.
