Thread Bare[ing] 2018-19

This body of work was a personal exploration of the emotional impact of bearing witness to my mother’s dementia over many years, and her subsequent death in July 2019.

​

It uncovers, acknowledges, confronts and depicts four key emotions: guilt, frustration, sorrow and fear.  In exposing these private reactions, I hoped to highlight and generate a discussion about the often unseen consequences of this condition.
