Maryrose Crook
Bringing all the things that run
12 August 2005 - 9 October 2005
Bringing all the things that run is a suite of works by Dunedin painter and musician Maryrose Crook, painted mostly when Crook held the 2003 William Hodges Fellowship and was Southland Art Foundation artist-in-residence. The show includes evocative southern skyscapes, intricately detailed dresses, still lifes stocked with fragments of nineteenth-century history, cabinets of curiosities, and some wry, haunting depictions of moths clothed in their own extraordinary patterns and insignia.
