The resulting exhibition, first seen in the National Library of Wales in 2012, provides a rich variety of work using painting, drawing and mixed media with a wide range of style and subject matter. As each book is viewed we meet an individual voice, a distinctive eye.

Open Book 'TULU GIRLS'

Starts 30th June to the 22nd September

National Library of Wales Aberystwyth

The hierarchy of cyber-culture over nature claims to offer enhancement of life, an opportunity to create make believe cyber bodies and participate in cyber ‘communities’. This alternative virtual world reinforces the desire to play with the alter ego, body transformations and the illusionary world of ‘chat room’ conversations, all of which permeate contemporary life and adds to the ever-increasing obsessions with body shape, identity and communication.

TULU GIRLS is an ongoing body of work ‘surfing’ between real life and a cyber life of make believe. TULU GIRLS manifests itself through large-scale canvas installations and an ongoing project - ‘STRAPLESS’ a written dialogue between the artist and a cross section of professionals, examining constrains/boundaries/conflicts/expectations within relationships in both the real and the imaginary world.
