Drawing on Illness’- Beth Frazer, self portraits.
Opening: Thursday 04 November 2010, 6-9pm
Beth Frazer's self portraits are frank investigations of her body and personality. The images are strong personal explorations, triggered through an undiagnosed illness. With her ‘portraits of an illness’, she researched
her physical pain through the medium of art- photography as a medium of double exposure.
For this project, Beth Frazer recreates the physical and mental space, illness, medical diagnosis, treatment and healing occupies.
As the artist explicitly expresses and investigates the link of art and art therapy, a talk about this subject will accompany the project.
‘Drawing on Illness’ continues until 27 November 2010.
Opening hours: Wed-Fri 1-5pm, Sat 11am- 3pm
Thursday, 18 November, 6pm: art and therapy//art as therapy. Talk with Dr Caryl Sibbett and others, tbc.
