ALICE, ISABELLE AND THE APPEARANCE OF MISS BLUE
Tamara Bond
July 9 — July 30
Artist reception: Saturday, July 9, 2—4 pm
It
all started with a dream. When Isabelle woke up, her sister
Alice and the manatee having
tea was on her mind. Whenever she had an animal dream, something
unusual happened. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until
she went to check the mail and noticed an inky black cloud
raining down directly on her house, and a very large frog sitting
in the fallow field watching her. It rained. And it rained
and rained. Days of rain went by until Isabelle went on her
roof to have a cup of tea and check the rising water level.
It was then that she noticed the whale. She decided to write
Alice for help.
So begins the fantastic story pictured in Tamara
Bond's newest
body of works. Bond's series of mixed media images illustrates
an improbable narrative featuring giant frogs and a whale called
Miss Blue.
