Description of
the British Colonial Installation:
This installation functions on three different levels. Firstly, to draw
parallels between the British Colonial Imperialism of the past and the
"New World Order" of today. Secondly, to raise the attention
of the passive viewer who may watch documentaries from the comfort of
their living room. Thirdly, on a personal level, the artist is looking
at her desire for the nostalgic, romantic crafted image of the British
Royal Era. She is questioning her reproduction of an era through the sensual
atmosphere of a British Colonial living room and questioning the aesthetics
of her consumption? The items within the installation are an important
part of the artist and her extended familys homes. Most of the sepia
photos are of the artist and her family.
