This female portrait investigates timescales. Victorian dress combined with an Elizabethan head dress of lace for example, She is a stargazer. Looking out into the cosmos, observing light from many, many years ago. Contemplating her own history and the lifelong experiences and elements that have made her what she is today. Found antique papers, often music books, build up background layers creating a rich tapestry of history.
