THIS IS CALL FOR TWO SHOWS IN ONE! ‘THE TIME OF HER LIFE II’ AND ‘SHADOW’ WILL BE EXHIBITED PUBLICLY AT FRONTEER INDEPENDENT ART FAIR, CASC FORUM SHOPPING CENTRE GALLERY, CHESTER, UK AS THE HOUSES GO ‘OUT OUT’ FOR THE FIRST TIME!

SHOW 1

THE TIME OF HER LIFE II

In this age of celebrities championing the cause, awareness around menopause is heightening, information becoming more accessible, celebrity-endorsed products and literature everywhere; not to mention menopause-related words being trademarked and this inevitable period of every woman’s life becoming a very lucrative business indeed…but does any of this actually change our own personal experiences? What were you told? What were you not told? Who were you and who have you become? This is the second show focussing on perimenopause, menopause and beyond - if you featured in the previous show please feel free to submit work again, a year on…

SHOW 2

SHADOW

'Shadow':

~ partial or complete darkness produced by a body coming between rays of light (and a surface)

~ used in reference to proximity, ominous oppressiveness, or sadness

~ a weak or inferior remnant or version of something

THIS IS A 1/12 SCALE DOLLHOUSE PROJECT - PLEASE READ THE DETAILS CAREFULLY
