Exhibition Text
Kendal Murray, Flights of Fancy
Dream-like narratives are performed by a multitude of microscopic identities with giant personalities. Short stories and tall tales are enacted in a range of playful and dramatic scenarios. Glass teapots, grass-covered purses, mirrored makeup compacts and open books set the stage for each scenario offering the delight of the unexpected, the puzzle of a question and the possibility of a dream escape into make-believe worlds.
