Works of Mother

My mother first became a fascinating subject in my visual studies in 1992 and remained so till her death in 2005 at the age of 89. Art works that were continually reworked and remain 'unresolved' (2 included below) are very much part of the process of trying to capture the person she was through the making of images.
