Elusive Elevation

Wood Frame 62cm by 82cm covered in knitted
beige wool with beige wool knitted face glued over it.


This image suggests a face of some kind . Maybe it supports the idea of being a skull, a symbolic representation of death and mortality. It  procures also in some societies a visible sign of 'life' and the  embodiment of consciousness. It has a similarity to the Turin Shroud, particularly as it is placed in an installation with a knitted skull,large needles, black wool, spiderweb of wool and a closet.(Please see below).The installation evokes a religious tone to the viewer suggestive of the feelings of being faced with life and death.When does the physical presence of being here, trapped, transform into the emotional one?Maybe it has the emotional, physical,psychological elements of pain similar to  the
Cells series 1991-1996 of Louise Bourgeois.
