Digital prints of three small drawings were scanned and printed on watercolour paper to create an installation as part of the large group exhibition, Facing Time, at the Surrey Art Gallery, Jan 23-March 27, 2021.
The three prints, of different sizes, were torn out and pasted to three different walls within the gallery. Two of the heads were pasted on blue walls within the main gallery, while the smallest head was pasted high on a grey wall, in the entryway to a smaller gallery.
This installation, Babyface, was produced as part of a group show, Facing Time, curated by Jordan Strom at the Surrey Art Gallery, British Columbia Jan 23 - March 27, 2021. This work, like other projects I’ve done that represent babies, responds to the impulse towards sentimentality that images of babies and children typically evoke. Babies are delightful, but they can also be terrifying.
