COLOUR HER WORLD
Drawing series, 2007-8

Colour Her World is an investigation into media representations of women of distinction. Drawing from the biographies as well as images of famous women who are significant for me, I assembled a personal, idiosyncratic “documentary” colouring book of portraits of these women at work. I distributed the drawings to a group of fellow artists, inviting them to colour the drawings as they saw fit.
