Gallery Mitra
Fabian works with Scotch tape, glue or discarded window blinds
to create "organisms" that straddle the line between
beautiful and grotesque; benign and malignant. She mimics the
process of growth within a context of cultural compromise and
expresses ideas about endangered environments in which culture
and nature conflict. |
